Ronald Ayliffe Schrapel . Royal Australian Air Force 408 (Goose) Squadron from Australia Ronald Schrapel did 40 bombing missions over Germany from Linton on Ouse when many comrades never returned. The crew became disorientated and this Australian Crew flew back with the Canadians. Dad vomited constantly in the air, remembered spiralling to escape enemy fire and never recovered mentally from accidentally bombing an orphanage.
I would love to hear from anyone who knew him and I still have and wear his war time blazer with the RCAF logo. He died in 1997 never having gotten over mum's death in 83. On the night he died the door bell rang and a whoosh came through through door enveloping myself and sister in mystical electricity. We know it was dad happy to be with mum again.

PFC. Kenard Ruben Schrock . US Army H Coy. 317th Infantry Regiment from Marsteller, PA (d.17th Sep 1944) P.F.C. Kenard Schrock of 80th Infantry Division, 317th Infantry Regiment, Company H served in the machine gunner Platoon. He used a 30.cal. Heavy Machine on a tripod.
He was killed in action and his family would like to hear from anyone who may remember him, or may have photos of him.
P.F.C. Schrock is mentioned in Andy Adkins book, "You Can't Get Much Closer Than This": "We started digging our OP a little deeper. Another Lieutenant from Company F had been sent up to replace the one who had been hit. Lieutenant Lou Cox wasn't getting along too well. A shell had landed in a fox hole along side the 3 of his men. P.F.C. John W Meyers was blown to pieces, P.F.C. Johnny Piko was blown back by the blast but was not killed, and P.F.C. Kenard R Schrock had both his legs blown off. P.F.C. Schrock lay there by his machine gun whimpering and quivering. There was absolutely nothing we could do for him. Captain Farrell took off his rain coat and placed it over PFC Schlock's quivering body. The machine gunner died a few minutes later."
Hill 351 is just west of Morey, France, and east of the Moselle River. There were a lot of men who died on that hill, and there is reason to believe that some may have died from friendly artillery fire. The Germans had taken hold of an American radio, and some believed that they managed to call in an American artillery strike on American positions.
A few years ago, the remains of another 317th Infantryman, P.F.C. Robert Horner were discovered before being returned to the U.S. for final internment.

Tech Sgt. Antonio Scibilia . United States Army 992nd Engineer Treadway Bridge Coy My grandfather would never speak to me about his duty and honor in the military. All I know is that he was a Tech Sargent in the 992nd Engineer Treadway Bridge Company from 17th May 1944 to 7th June 1944 and was awarded a medal for keeping all of the vehicles in his group operational. I know this is a strech and that I probably won't get a reply, but does anyone know what his group did and what battles they may have been present in?
Update
My grandfather Leo Whaley from Bridgeport, CT also served in the same company 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. (Mike)

Cpl. Leslie George Scoins . Army Army Air Corps from Exmoor (d. ) Like my father who served in Norway in WW2, my uncle George Scoins didn't say much about the war. I only know from records that my uncle George from Exmoor was in Stalag 357 Oerbke, Lower Saxony, Germany in 1942. It has been fasinating reading the clips and I would very much like to find out about my uncle's time in the prison camp and if anyone knew him.
