MsG asked:
I am a researcher who has been trying to find information on a civilian army employee in WWII, especially during the Berlin Airlift (1948-1949). He was a welder from the midwest who took apart large equipment so it could be flown oversees, reassembled so bases could be built. I have contacted NARA, the welding associations, the equipment suppliers of that time, ancestry.com and even have a letter into NARA’s civilian personnel records dept (no response yet). All sources that mention him are vague and redundant. We want to find the man or his family for his story. Looking for new ideas…
