Comments:CSM Houston and MSG Morris(S3), Thanks for the posts and update about the 15th Engineer BN. Great news! Is it possible for either or both of you to post updates about the 15th here so all of us can read them? I am the web master for this site. I was with the 15th in Vietnam '68-'69 - PLT LDR 1st Platoon, B Company; XO A Company; 9th DIV LNO to the 199th LIB. Let me know if I can be of any help. I do not remember anyone putting restrictions on their photos being use in other places/web pages, as long as they were given credit. I would have marked them as copyright materail.

Comments:cont. Any Veterans that wish to receive an invitation to the re-activation cermony please contact me so I can add you to the list. I am also looking for any memorabilia to display in the Battalion headquarters building if any would like to part with it. We are in the process of designing a Battalion Coin are looking for any cash donantions so that we can buy them. I know these are big requests but thought I'd give it a shot so we can reactivate the 15th Eng Bn properly. My e-mail address is: michael.t.morris@eur.army.mil or michael.t.morris@us.army.mil In closing let me say that I am proud to be able to say that I am in the 15th Eng Bn and will ensure that its legacy is carried on. looking forward to hearing from you all!!!!!!!!

Comments:Hello to all the Veterans of the 15th Eng Bn. My name is MSG Morris. I am the 15th Eng Bn Operations Sergeant. If you haven't heard yet the 15th is being re-activated. The Battalion will be based here in Schweinfurt, Germany. The date is set for the middle of the year but can't post it on the internet. If you would like the exact date please e-mail me at the address provided below. Also we are starting up this Battalion with nothing. I have seen the photos on the web page and plan on downloading some of them and getting them enlarged and framed to hang on the walls so the Soldiers can see some of the history and the legacy of the 15th that the Veterans established. It is a rich history and I want the soldiers to know it and be proud of the heritage. If anyone does not want a certain photo displayed within our battalion area please let me know so I can respect their request. Any Veterans that wish to receive an invitation to the re-activation cermony please contact me so I can add you t

Comments:John Silvasi, today I returned the articles and pictures you sent me and realized after returning home this PM that I had not enclosed the note I written you, the 9th ID shoulder patch or the Go Devil pin I wanted to give you. So here goes. (My oldest son, a United States Marine, calls me an SOB - Senile Old Bastard - guess he's correct). All the information you sent has been posted. I hope I presented it correctly. Let me know of any corrections that are needed. (The Go Devil lapel pin I have is from when I briefed Colonel Hemphill, CO 3rd Brigade regarding planned 9th ID combat activity). Hopefully you have additional photos/information/stories about your time during WWII to share with others. I will post it all. I am amazed at the requests posted on Division, Brigade, Battalion websites by wives, sons, daughters, grandchildren asking, after a loved one has died, for information about that soldier - since they never talked about it when they were alive. Most will not unless pushed ha

Comments:John Silvasi, I received your package today. Thank you. The contents are amazing. I had scheduled myself to work on some film I shot in Vietnam tomorrow but your information has peaked my interest and I will scan and post your material on the web site AND it will be completed tomorrow. The GO DEVIL (60th Infantry) and AAA-0 (39th Infantry - Anyone, Anywhere, Anytime bar None) designations remained intact in Vietnam. Regards, Rich

Cheap Charlie guest book hosting at 50megs. Here is the rest of my message that is continued from the message below. There are over 3,500 files posted on this site of which over 2,000 are photographs you have all submited. With your help I have located over 1,500 15th Engineers who have served with the 15th Engineers. You can find them in the "Roll Call" selection in the left frame. This web site has been online for over 350 weeks and I have paid the fee to make it advertisement free. We have 5GB of drive space available from our host 50MEGS and we currently use only 84MB.
