Resources for Seabee and other military records
in World War II

Many who are researching their father's or mother's combat experience as Seabees in WWII have asked to find the history of their role models.  The youth of America really love their families and their sacrifice, so our country will be strong under this continuing interest and guidance.  Some have requested information on various people or military units that served in the Saipan conflict.  Unfortunately, I am unable to answer most of these questions as I played a specific role as a low level Seabee grunt. Below are recommended sources of information you should investigate if you are doing this kind of research on Seabees or others during WWII. Note that "CEC" stands for Civil Engineering Corps.
