Joseph H. Hoopes
United States Army 823rd Tank Destroyer Btn.
from:Boise, Idaho
I would like to know if anyone from the 823rd tank destroyer battalion remembers my uncle Joseph H. Hoopes. He was killed in March(?) of 1945.I am not sure if he died in France or Germany. I have a photocopy of a newspaper clipping stating his unit won a citation for its part indefeating the German counter-attack at Mortain France. My uncle was from Boise Idaho. If anyone has any information about my uncle Joe I would love to hear from you.
