252nd Signal Construction Company PS

[mike36]

Am searching for any info on the 252nd Signal Construction Company Philippine Scouts.Where it operated,time frame etc.Believe it possible that the following soldier may be related to my wife.

Manila WWII Cemetery

Augustin Resurreccion
Tec 5 252 Signal Construction Company
Philippine Scouts

I heard from a US Army officer awhile back who commanded this unit in Germany in the mid 1980s.He said it was a cable construction company and its flag had a battle streamer from the Philippine campaign.


Any info greatly appreciated,

Thanks

Mike

Hi Mike, have you by any chance posted an inquiry in the Philippine Scout Heritage Society's online forum? There are a couple of people there who have access to research tools who could possibly give you more information. -victor

Hello Victor,

Thank you.Yes I have posted several times on the PSHS website but no replys.

You have a great site here.Ive been on for several hours.Such a fascinating subject.Last time I was in Zamboanga I spoke with a lady that was at Tacloban when MacArthur landed.He told her to get off the beach it was too dangerous there.She had such great stories about what she saw and tears welled up in her eyes as she recollected her experiences at Tacloban and Manila during the war...
