Pvt Myers, 22, was
initially thought to have been killed
in a jeep accident but subsequent receipt of copies of his Individual
Deceased Personnel File (IDPF) as well as the Morning Reports for the
Medical Detachment have shown that he was killed in action.
Myers was
initially buried in Molenhoek Cemetery #1, Holland, Plot E, Row 1, Grave
12. His remains were shipped home at the
family's request after the war.
He was
ultimately laid to rest on Jan 29,.1949 in the Southfields Section of
Green Park Cemetery, Location 27-160-3, Portland, Indiana.
NOTE:
Myers' grave marker mistakenly lists him as a member of the 84th
Parachute Infantry, rather than the 508th.
