Sgt. Ransom L. "Dick" Gilliam
United States Army Company F 23rd Engineers
from:Garfield, Washington
My Grandfather, Ransom L. Gilliam, enlisted in the 23rd Engineers Regiment on September 20, 1917. He was promoted to rank of Sergeant on November 5, 1917, Mess Sergeant November 5, 1917, Sergeant February 1, 1918, Stable Sergeant February 1, 1918 and Sergeant first class on October 4th, 1918. His service in France was from March 30, 1918 through June 16, 1919. It is my understanding that he was gassed twice during that time. He was honorably discharged on June 27, 1919.
I am looking for any information on 23rd Engineers, Company F during their time in France. I do have a book for Army AEF "Regimental Roster, 23rd Engineers, USA" with 81 pages of names, company and address. I would be more than happy to share this information.
