13th Major Port roster, part 2

Three chapters of my book deal with WWII Antwerp. In overall command of the American supply operations in this city was the 13th Major Port. The 13th had also been managing port operations in England during the build up to Normandy. To help those researching their family history I'm posting names from a 1946 unit roster here and in two other posts. If you see your dad or grandfather in the list feel free to get in touch. Also, be sure to see my other 13th Port history articles.

  1. I have found a diary from 1943 to 1946 of William Glenn Griffin from North Carolina. The address in the back of the diary is

    13th Post HQ Company
    APO 522 c/o Postmaster NY
    206
    168
    228
    98 Pilikiaan, Antwerp
    Belgium.

    Is it possible that the name should be William instead of Winston in the files? Please email me at MoravianGirl@hotmail.com

  2. Thank for telling the story of the 13th Major Port Company. My grandfather is Vincent C. Noto. He just turned 91 this year and has just started to share his stories of his time in Falmouth.
