| Crewmember? | Father was on LST 794 and LCT 1392 |
| From: | St. Peters, Mo. |
| Comments: | My father Millard Bogard Redman is pictured in the initiation pit in the photo labeled "spraying crew". He is the taller man, he was about age 34 at the time with wife and two daughter at home in St. Louis, Mo. Sometime after the invasion of Okinawa my father returned home, and spent over a year at the Jefferson Barracks Hospital in St. Louis recovering from ailments, possibly poison water, not sure about that and he suffered with jungle rot the rest of his life. He died on Aug 31, 1971, he was 61 years of age. Wish I could have known more about his war days but he did not talk much about it. Would appreciate any information about him that you are your members may have or recollect. Sincerly Benny Redman |
