840th Engineers

This Battalion crossed the Normandy beaches early in July to build Meautis (A-17), then raced armored forces to Dreaux, then knocked out a "quirky" from the white chalk of Mourmelon. They struggled in the mud of Toul during the Fall, and shivered through the Yuletide at Tantonville, after which they engaged in maintenance operations. Crossed Rhine in March to Frankfort, then to Stuttgart.

843rd Engineers

The 843rd landed on D + 25 in Normandy, and airfield construction began that day and continued through Normandy, across northern France to Munich, Germany, when V-E Day arrived. This unit was the first to operate on the northern side of Paris, occupying Le Bourget with enemy troops at one end of it. It constructed in whole, or part, 40 fields in Europe.
