- Hello, Kenneth was my dad. He served in WWII from 1942 through 1945. He was assigned first to the 9th Armored Division which was getting ready for desert war in Africa. He was with the tank division. Later he was with the 4th Armored Division and then the 6th. He was finally sent to Europe in Dec. of 1943. He fought in many campaigns and finally helped to liberate Buckenwald Prison camp. He also served as a guard and prisoner escort during the Nierenberg trials. He was finally sent back home after the war ended in 1945. His letters home to his mother are now mine along with some of his other service momentos. I decided to share the letters because of the positive attitude that he kept no matter what he faced. He was like that all of his life and I believe we would all do better in our own lives if we did the same.
