I hoping that anyone with more info on the Redball express would post this info. my father was a member of this unit and the 915th heavy trucking company. The White officers were given the credit for their partipation in world war II of which i have no problem but it was the black soldiers who drove these trucks into danger and got the vital supplies to the front lines. I have a picture of my fathers unit (with the one white commander) in my possession. I'm just trying to find out more about them. My father passed away recently at 91. He was able to tell me some interesting things. I just want to know more

My name is Kathaleen Wright, my grandfather was also apart of the Red Ball Express. I don't know much about his unit or how to obtain information about it, but if anyone has any information please forward it to my email address and I will do the same. His name was James Eddie Walton. I'm not sure of his rank, but I know that he was there.

Thank you,
Kathaleen Wright

I just saw a movie on you-tube, with a really young Sidney Poitier, called red ball express. It's all about this.

My Mother was taken by the Nazis from Southern Poland as forced labour to work on a horse farm in Belgium and then rescued by the Americans when they came through Belgium and she was taken to Paris where she joined the Polish army. I am trying to retrace her steps and if anyone has any information, I should be most grateful.
