Hello, Thank you for posting this, I just found the site. Cpl. Robert Bohn was my uncle; I was named after him by my mother, his sister. Do you have any more information about uncle Bobby and/or his unit, especially while in North Africa and Italy. I am trying to research as much as possible, but apparently his army records were lost in a fire in St. Louis. My wife and I are planning a trip to Italy, (it is the 80th anniversary of the battles there) and I was hoping find my way to the Venafro area. Any help or ideas or resources you might have will be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for all you do, Robert Hamilton

I think the books by Robert W. Black are ideal starting places. This one covers the 1st Ranger Bn. : https://amzn.to/3QQue9N
