June 6, 1944:
ReplyDeleteThe 519th Port Bn(-) landed on UTAH Beach.
Due to the "Fog Of War", the 280th Port Co was directed to OMAHA Beach. Its members subsequently
traversed over land through the town of CARATAN and reunited with their 519th Port Bn on D+8 at UTAH Beach.
CORRECTION: "Carentan" Thank you
ReplyDeleteHaven't head that before. Thanks, Italo. I spoke to Peter Sloboda today. He was in the 280th. Did you know him? I'd love to speak to you too. Could you send me an email?
ReplyDeleteYes, Andrew, I did know him. My daughter's e-mail is crhesse54@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteif you would like to get in touch with me.
Italo (Bart) DeBartoli
Can anyone tell me what division, infantry, etc. that this port co. joined after moving off the beach?? My father was a longshoreman and I am trying to retrace his route through the war. Any info would be help full. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteTh 280th remained with the 519th Port Battalion, so the company's history from D-Day to the end of the war is covered on this blog and in the book.
ReplyDeleteAndrew I'm so glad I found this!
