MEN OF 3RD PLATOON, "F" COMPANY.

 

3rd Platoon men. A.T. Fields, now dead, was the last 1st Sgt of F. Co. He was a Pfc when we went to Negros, became a squad leader, then platoon sgt, and after the war everyone else senior had gone home. He joined the outfit in late 1943 and went through everything. They did not enter his CIB award. I wrote everybody giving service, purple heart, tc, to no avail. John Lindgren found orders awarding his CIB in Suitland, MD.
