In need of a couple of suggestions

[marked50]

14. The idea of contacting the National WW2 Museum is a good one.

I too had a considerable amount from my Fathers WW2 service in the 69th Division Artillery, serving in Europe from about Jan 1945 thru the Wars end and occupation.

I contacted them with a listing of these things and they were extremely gracious throughout our contact. They had much of the things already on these listings, like medals and ribbons and things but the photos were all taken, with the annotations my father had made. They also took most of the flyers and books and notes and journal material that he had accumulated and some letters from the time period. And best of all, all the details of his life's history that either I could add or what he had written down for his own auto-biography and his Service Photo.

Best communications with anyone I have ever had on these matters. As I mentioned, very gracious.

Best of Luck to you on this.
