Leo Whaley

United States Army 992nd Engineer Treadway Bridge Coy

from:Bridgeport, CT

My grandfather Leo Whaley from Bridgeport, CT also served in the 992nd Engineer Treadway Bridge Coy during WWII. I have some of his military records that show what battles they were involved. The 992nd landed in Normandy around D-day 6th June 1944 and went right up to the end in Germany. They built treadway bridges across some major rivers during the war. They even received a Presidential/unit citation for completing a bridge in record time while under heavy enemy fire.
