I think we've exchanged correspondence previously. I've posted several questions regarding my grandfather, PFC Herb E. James I/141st INF. Recently, my father gave me an envelope containing letters and telegrams from the period. According to a SECWAR telegram dated 12 Oct 44, my grandfather went MIA on 21 Sept 44. Another WARDEPT letter dated 28 Feb 45, states the he went missing IVO Eloyes, France supporting a crossing of the Moselle River. Interestingly, by late 1944, my grandmother had already received several "postcards" from my grandfather while he was held at Stalag IIb. A SECWAR telegram dated 27 May 45, states that he was "returned to military control date unreported." My father was 3 during this period of the war. In his letters, my grandfather writes to his young son that one day he would tell him about his experiences. Unfortunately, he passed away at the age of 38 in 1955 from heart failure...my father was never able to hear his stories. Born in 1967, I did not have the opportunity to meet my grandfather. I think I ran across a message that your father too was held at Stalag IIb. I'd appreciate any information you might have. According to your profile, you are just down Hwy 3 from me...I live on Bainbridge Is. R/Darren James djy887@aol.com
