One of my 3 uncles who was oversea during WW2 was in the RCA. He went into France On July 7 1944 and was at front lines there and Belgium and where else I’m not sure. He had a breakdown during heavy shelling on them and left the front for a couple weeks and then returned two weeks later when they were accidentally bombed the Americans and saw 7 of his buddies killed. He had been with the 3rd LAA regiment and towards the end of the war he was with the 1st LAA regiment.
I am not sure on timeline exactly where or when this happened, the dates are not marked on his military records. As close as I can figure it was fall of 1944 or spring of 1945. I would really like to find out more on these timelines as well.
I’m not sure if this helps at all or gives you a possibility to a lead for your grandfather Quinn.
If anyone would have anymore information on timelines I would really appreciate it very much.

Thanks

Eric
