Shirley Weber served in C Company, 126th Infantry Regiment, 32nd Infantry (Red Arrow) Division during WWII in New Guinea. This was a Michigan National Guard unit from Kalamazoo, and was federalized in 1940. After training in the US and Australia, his unit was sent to New Guinea in 1942 and fought alongside Australians at Buna. He later participated in the battles at Saidor and Aitape, and the Bronze Star for an operation to pull out fire from the Japanese hiding in the jungle. He contracted malaria on New Guinea, which eventually led to his being sent home, where we worked with German POWs at a camp in Chicago.
