Per Charles Craig – stepson of Oliver:
“Ollie was the 1st Sgt.. 
He was the one who had the company clerk do the daily journal. 
It was his responsibility for that to happen.
Don't know why he kept only these pages – Dec-1944 – May 1945.
Original is on onion skin paper, but it's legal size paper.”

Can you believe it!! 
Through placing request for any information/photos about the 
549th AAA AW BN - Btry C,
just look at all the items that many have contributed after finding us here....

I now have this great find - the daily journal kept to show my Dad, 
who wanted to know about his brother, Mel’s time/place 
during the Battle of the Bulge.. 

And it all started in 2004 with Tim Muilenburg, 
Son of Ivan Muilenburg contributing the unit photo.. 

Here’s to the great soldiers of the 549th AAA AW Bn Btry C,
and also to the family members of those men who are making sure their 
time/place in the war will be documented for generations to come.

history06 > Wasserbullig, Luxembourg

The issue of the Bulge Bugle (VBOB)
May 2004, omitted the event of the Liberation of Wasserbullig, Luxembourg by the 87th Infantry Division. 

A listing of the towns liberated, and the units which liberated them, was published by Jean Milmeister of CEBA. who edited the book, 
“The Liberty Road in the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg 1944-1994.” 

Also the plaque to the liberation of Wasserbillig in that town was also omitted in his listings. 

This ommission was called to the attention of the BUGLE Editor.
