Hi Mick,
I found your post regarding CHALMERS from Ontario who moved to Detroit, Michigan. I have
been searching for Ronald Chalmers, and wonder if we have a connection. Ronald served with
my father during WWII in the 327th Engineer Combat Battalion of the 102nd Infantry
Division. The Division history book roster lists his home town as Detroit. A friend of
mine who also served with Ronald says that Ronald's father worked for the Detroit
Leland hotel, and that before moving to Detroit and joining the US Army, Ronald was from
Ontario and served in the Canadian Army - a unit called the Black Watch.
Do you think we may have a connection?
Thank you,
Laurie
