Thank you so much.

I have the complete history of the Battalion sent to me by a Son of another veteran. It is several hundred electronic pages long and I have not read all of it.

The one thing which impressed me most about them is how competent they were at their job. Just like a bunch of ants at work. I am pretty sure that bridge was completed in only two days and while under fire.
