Hi my name is Kelli Mills. My father served in the Army in 1945 and 1946. He didn’t talk much about his time in the service. I did find this paper of his that reads… HEADQUARTERS 13TH ENGINEER COMBAT BN. APO 7 c/o POSTMASTER SAN FRANCISCO, CAL. I do know he was in Seoul Korea. I was wondering if anyone knew him and if so could you tell me his roll in the service? His name is Calvin Leroy Mills He was from Baltimore, Md I have some of his photos and would love to identify the men in them. Thank you for any help. Kelli kelli21229@yahoo.com

My father served in WWII in Company B, 13th Engineer Battalion, 7th Infantry Division and was involved in battles and campaigns in Ryukyus, the Aleutian Islands, Eastern Mandates, and the Southern Philippines. He was awarded the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star in 1944, the Good Conduct Medal, the Asiatic Pacific Service Medal, and the Philippines Liberation Ribbon with 2 bronze service stars. His highest grade held was Sergeant. He was honorably discharged in Ft. Logan, Colorado, in October, 1945, and returned to Kansas to raise his family. Since my older son served in the Army, he has become very interested in learning about my father’s military history. I actually watched the movie series “The Pacific” directed by Tom Hank’s. It was very eye opening as to how horrible the battles were. It really is a miracle that my father survived. Would you be able to direct me to any information that you might have regarding the war in the Pacific as it specifically relates to Company B,13th Engineer Battalion?

This is really an appreciated website. I served in Korea at a VERY young age & did a lot of growing up during my tour there. I can remember almost all of my fellow platoon members & my C.O. (Capt Ward) and a very professional first sgt. by the name of Hanna. I can assure you that the lessons and experiences of my tour have served me well in the many ensuing years since then. God Bless America & I look forward to attending a reunion asap.

My father was wounded at Attu in WW2. I’m looking for any information about his battalion. He was an Army sergeant, I think in an engineer battalion. He received a Bronze Star and two Purple Heart medals. That’s all I know of his military experience. He passed away in 1971, and my mother in 1986. If anyone can give me any information, I’d much appreciate it. His name was Peter Maddock. Thank you.

I served in Bravo Company, 13th EN BN (C)(L) (COHORT) from AUG 85 – NOV 88. Could you please add me to the company roster. Also we were a COHORT Battalion while I was there, it is a very long story, but we have a group page on Face Book and I would love to get this site on to our group page, hopefully get some members to join, but it would be easier if you had a face book page, if you have one please let me know. Anyhow, thanks! It has been and always will be the best company and battalion I have ever served in! I will retire this July, 2012 so that is saying a lot about how special the 13th and my time there was! God Bless!

Before I start getting bashed or blocked, I also want to post that I served with the 13th and I’m furious because that is what is being said on the 7th ID page on facebook. The words I used were their exact words and not just a few. When I mentioned I served with them the all chimed in saying the 13 were just servants


Paul Brennan Wednesday, 2/8/12, 8:53 AM

Would you find it offensive if I said that “Saying you served with the 7th Infantry Division as anything other then an 11b is like saying you were playing with the Yankees but were just a bat boy.”


richard ottman Saturday, 1/14/12, 6:39 PM

Served in 13th Sept. 1954 – Sept. 1955. Big changes since then. We were up on line when I got there but startd moving to Casey shortly thereafter. Asst. Plt. Sgt. Clifford America drowned in rescue mishap in May 1955.
