Main Sources
A wonderful source that we were able to utilize was Ancestry.com. It was great because we could access documents that helped us identify John's family through censuses and other documents.
Americandday.org was also very helpful with John's military history and his roles in his division.
Armchairgeneral.com is where l was able to learn the most about the battle of La Fiere. It described in detail all of the components of the preparation of the battle as well as the battle itself.
The last source that we took advantage of was the National Archives. Were able to locate John's temporary grave site as well as his paratrooper training records. These were great finds that added to our knowledge of John's military experience.
