Hello. I have been trying to find out what outfit my Grandfather trained with before he was put into the infantry and sent to France. I only have a few clues. I have his prayer book, in which is written-"St. Andrews Parish Christmas, 1943". I've found a parish in Pasadena, California that I think might be it. I also have pictures that he sent to his family showing them where he was training and the type of equipment his unit was using. Can anyone identify these guns that they are using in the photos?He drew marks above his head to identify his job in the artillery unit. Also, can you see any clues that I might have missed, or give me any tips on how I might be able to track down a unt like this? I've written to the Archives, but I understand that service records are hard to get because of the fire. I'd appreciate you thoughts or advice.
Thanks,
Geoff
