This site is fantastic. My Uncle SGT Clark Whittaker was Killed in Action (France) on 12 September 1944 while serving in G Company of the 134th Infantry Regiment. Before I found your site I only knew he was in the 134th Infantry because of his tombstone. I have now read morning reports of him being assigned to G Co, promoted and being KIA. I have read AARs of battles he fought in and saw the maps where he walked across part of France. Thank you all for maintaining this site. It is an awesome tribute to men who fought in the Regiment and a great resource for family to find information. Thank You!

I visited your page because my father in law, Richard Irwin was a proud member of the 137th. I share this the other day and then the next entry.
Sadly, the greatest generation is slipping away day by day. These men and women served at a level of commitment that still makes one wonder just what they were made of. They went places and did things that enabled all of us who came later to enjoy a way of life many can only dream about. My father in law, Richard Irwin...here after to be known as Sir Richard is one of them. Last year we sent an application to the French Embassy and asked that he be considered for inclusion in the French Legion of Honor. He would be known as a Knight of the Legion of Honor. It has been a long process and they don't award the honor to you posthumously. His medal has arrived in Arizona and the proclamation signed by the President of France will follow. I am humbled by the thought of all of this and I'm sure my eyes are a little leaky right now thinking about how the French made a commitment to honor those who gave whatever they could to save their country and way of life. So today I bow to you Sir Richard and I can't wait to see your medal in person. Here is a bit of information on the Legion of Honor.

He had his medal for one day and then I had to post this message.
Thank you to all who shared in the celebration yesterday of my father-in-law...Sir Richard Irwin receiving his Legion of Honor ribbon and medal from the French government. He hung on long enough to be honored and then quietly passed away last evening. He leaves such a legacy of collectively awesome sons and an amazingly impressive set of Grands and his life was full and rich and he was a kind and honorable man. He left on March 10,2016. He had a great run at life. Thanks for helping to perpetuate the memory of so many awesome soldiers.

My grandpa had passed away recently (90 years old), and he was a POW during WWII. However, not much was know about his efforts in the war because he never talked about.
Recently my father showed me some documents from the War Department from 1944 & 1945 explaining to my Great Grandma that her son became a POW on 9-11-44. He was held at the Stalag 2A German prison camp. I researched and found his file on the ww2pow.info website as noticed he was a part of the Parent Unit 0134. After some further research I found that meant he was a member of the 134th Infantry Regiment. I then stumbled across this website, where I found his name listed in this site's POW list:
William J Mills, POW
Private First Class
Thanks

Roberta, this is truly a great site and a wonderful tribute to the men of the 134th. When I sent you the photos from my Dad's (Bruce E. Ross) scrapbook, I was hoping that they would prove to be as valuable to other families as they are to me. Since that submission, I have heard from 4 members of families whose relatives pictures were included in my dad's scrapbook. They were thrilled to see these shots of their fathers and grandfathers. Without this outlet, there would be no other means for me to have reached out to these people. My sincere thanks to you for all the hard work you have put into this project and for your dedication and commitment to these brave and honorable men.
