Thank you @tool Man - You are well informed on the Hellcats. I wrote a book about my experience with my grandfather regarding his war experiences and life in small town NE. If you like to read it is on Amazon 'A Grandson's Story - Beatrice, NE' - a Parker even gets a mention in a chapter. He was in the 493rd and 494th Armored Field Artillery. I have their post event assessment of Herrlisheim . If you watched band of brothers - at the end when they liberate the camp -- that was also 12th AD - as you said - from a small farm to the front row of the biggest mess in human history - and he stayed on for war crimes as an attorney prosecuting cases. He lived quite a life - these Parkers mean a lot to me.
