Received email ...

"My name is Bob Weidler, I'm hoping you can help me with some information. My father Cpl. George D. Weidler, was an armorer with the 373rd. He never wanted to talk too much about the war or his time of service. In 1996 he asked Andre Woods to not publish his address or to contact him further. He passed away Aug. 10, '05. I now feel free to try to find people he served with while they are still with us to 'get the goods on him'. Any help would be greatly appreciated." Bob Wieldler, 6 Knolls Rd. Poughkeepsie, NY 12601.

Bob may also be reached c/o  412th webmaster.
