From: Richard van Kassel [richard1976@home.nl] Sent: Wednesday, December 13, 2006 2:05 PM To: gynon2@whidbey.com Subject: NEGenWeb Military Resource Pages My name is Richard and live in Roermond, The Netherlands. Not long ago I adopted the grave of T Sgt Donald L Giles, ASN 37035106 (320 inf reg/35th inf div) at the Margraten Cemetery in The Netherlands. He entered the service from Nebraska and was killed in action in Germany on April 16th 1945. I started a research to know more about him who gave his life for our freedom. But unfortunely it's hard to find some information. I saw his name on your website Nebraskans in World War II (before the war he lived in Otoe County, Nebraska) which I found during my search and I was wondering if you can help me or give me some advice where I can get some more information. All help and/or information is appreciated. Kind regards Richard van Kessel The Netherlands
