Looking for anyone who knew my Grandfather in Company G 63rd Infantry Regiment
I am interested in talking with anyone who may remember by grandfather William “Bill” Leo Severn from G Company, 63rd Infantry Regiment.
Any help or information is greatly appreciated. My grandfather passed away before I was born so I never had the chance to talk with him about any of his wartime experiences, I am hoping that perhaps some comrades who remember serving with him might have some good stories to tell. Thanks for the help. -Jeremy

Jeremy,
My uncle T/Sgt Quinton Jackson was in the same company. He was KIA on 6 Apr 45 at Bayan Bayanan, Luzon, PI. I have a framed Co G roster which has your grandfather’s name on it.
I too would like to get in touch w/anyone who may have known my uncle Quinton. He had been a member of the 63d Regiment for 4 yours. I have letters from Quinton to my father and their mother, but there are no names of fellow unit members mentioned. I also have in my possession the letter written by the CO of Co G, Captain Frederick M McInnis which was written to my grandmother.
