My father; Bruce E. Ziegler was in 262nd Co I mortar squad and survivor of Leopoldville. His mortar Squad leader Sgt. Ray Richards, was not with unit after the sinking and my father always thought he perished in the disaster. Upon recent visit to the Memorial at Ft. Benning and additional internet research I am not finding his name any where among victims or else where. All else he remembers is believe from Philadelphia or that area possibly NJ or some other close state. Any information is appreciated. Beth Ziegler; proud of my father’s service and thankful for the French Tug that rescued him from the Channel that Christmas Eve.
