From time to time I get requests from individuals asking if I know the Whereabouts of someone they served with. This is a new page for posting those requests. If you are looking for someone, please send me as much info as you have and i will post request here.
Dear Mr. Yoho
I am a collector of german and american militaria. Recently i bought two citaions belonging to a Ross Petzing. Even though i tried to find more about him on the internet there was hardly any information to be found.
I discovered your very interesting homepage. You were once promoted by a Lt. Ross Petzing during your duty in the Korean PsyWar Unit. I found one picture on the internet of Ross Petzing being a graduate of the Pennsylvannia Military College.
Now i would like to know if you own a photo of Lt. Ross Petzing. I would like to find out if it is the same person. I would also like to know if you know more about the whereabouts of Mr. Petzing.
The citaions i bought were found in the cellar of an socalled Amerika Haus in my hometown Nürnberg. If Mr. Petzing is still alive, and has any interest in those items i would glady hand those two items over to him.
I apologise beforehand for my not so accurate english. And especially for any help/info you might provide.
Greetings from Germany

EDITOR'S NOTE: I responded to Klaus that I have tried many times to find Lt. Ross Petzing with no success. Lt Petzing served in the 14th PsyWar Battalion, 16th Company on Okinawa from approx 1962-1963. If anyone has any information about Ross please contact me and Klaus
