Connection: David Young
After a great deal of research and a number of bad leads, I was finally able to make a connection with Captain David Young’s son (and later his daughter as well). Captain Young was in charge of B Battery of the 733rd FA Bn. and was admired and respected by his men. I’m particularly excited about this development because grandpa Ivo had mentioned Captain Young on several occasions, and as a Forward Observer he likely spent some time with him. With the permission of Captain Young’s son and daughter, any information they are able to divulge will be available here as soon as I can post it.
