Tech Sgt. Matthew J. Petek
United States Army F Coy. 38th Infantry Regt.
(d.15th Jun 1944)
My husband's uncle Matthew Petek made it through the D-Day Invasion on Omaha Beach, but was severely wounded at Trevieres, France. He was sent to a hospital plant 4113 in Frome St. Quintin, Dorset, England and died on June 15, 1944. I am trying to find out any information about this hospital and Uncle Matt's injuries but have had no luck so far. His name was Technical Sergeant Matthew J. Petek from Milwaukee, Wisconsin , U.S. Army 38th Infantry, 2nd Division "F" Company. He is buried in the Cambridge Military Cemetery in Cambridge, England. We were fortunate enough this past May to visit his gravesite.
If anyone knows anything about this hospital I would appreciate the information.
