    Personal:
    I am looking for info regarding my Grandfather. He would have been stationed at Camp Polk & Camp Claiborne Louisiana sometime in the summer of 1943. He was a Tank Trainer of some sort & never left the USA. Because (I do not think) he was never assigned to a unit, I can not seem to find any info on him. The 4 Tank groups associated w these two Camps were: 634th - 703rd - 773rd -814th. His name was Ronald E. Kelley from Indiana.
    His patches/pins from pictures included:
    A 2 stripe T patch
    A round Halftrack button
    A Tank Eating 8 wheel patch
    I would appreciate any information. Thanks so much
