My Grandfather was Elburn Quincy Fisher, from Okmulgee OK. He was captured and sent to Stalag 4B. All I know is that he carried the" BAR" and was wounded by a grenade and froze his feet on the march to Germany. He died in 1969,and is buried in the veterans circle in Okmulgee OK. I was wondering if anyone might remember him.

You are not the only descendant searching for info on someone in the division. The urge to learn more is strong!

Several 3rd battalion names have come up recently but these were from 3rd battalion headquarters, no L Company. If you check in again and let me know where you are in your inquiries, I could do some checking with members of the division association, too. Let me know... You might also want to keep an eye on the Site Soldier Index for the 422nd. You may see someone with connections to that unit appear there. 106thdivision.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=index&action=display&thread=416You came in with more info on your grandfather than many have. I assume you have researched the BAR (Browning Automatic Rifle), but for anyone viewing this post who is not familiar with the weapon there is a discussion under military equipment on this site that gives more info on the weapon your grandfather carried: 106thdivision.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=equipment&action=display&thread=650 |
