Welcome to new member Matt Underwood, 11th AB
My name is Rev. Matt Underwood of Mt. Washington, KY, and I am the senior national Editor of the 11th Airborne Division Association's newspaper "Voice of the Angels". The 503rd became part of the 11th in 1951, and many of their unit members are also in the 11th. I am interested in all things WWII Pacific, particularly Airborne, Filipino Guerrillas, U.S. Tank units, and other U.S. Army units, as well as all early U.S. Airborne subjects, up to and including the 11th Airborne's final deactivation and re-flagging as the 1st Cav in 1965. I am currently producing biographies of WWII U.S. Airborne pioneers, and am seeking relatives of Frank Robert Duke, Sr., one of the first 15 officers of the original 501st Parachute Battalion, 1940, whose name appears on the MILEY MUG. I am desperately seeking a photo of Frank for our paper. Also seeking more data on Charles Maxwell Tannehill of MS & LA, and John Belton O'Connell of AL, two more of the first 15 officers on the MILEY MUG. Thanks, Fellas!
