My father was Sgt. Joe Parkhurst. He served in 11th, A56th Engineers. He talked off and on about his experiences, sometimes with great difficulty. He had pictures of Mauthausen and always talked about this one experience as the worst of man's inhumanity to man. He was very proud of his military service, and flew the flag of the US every day of his life. He passed in 1993, and we still miss him to this day.

I remember your father, Joe Parkhurst very well. He was a good soldier, a good leader, and was well liked by all who served with him. You may be proud of his service, and the part he played in helping ot free Europe from Nazi tyranny.
