Grave marker for Leopold A. Fraczkowski in Section-2E, Row CP/ES, Lot 63, Grave 5, Cathedral Cemetery, Wilmington (New Castle county), Delaware.

Leopold enlisted in the Army at Wilmington, DE on 12 December 1941, just 6 days after the attack on Pearl Harbor and volunteered for parachutist duty.

On 13 August 1944 TSgt Fraczkowski was transferred from the 11th Replacement Depot to Service Company, 508th PIR.

Remarkably, that is the only entry in 508th records for this man.

Based on the grave marker inscription he was at some time transferred to Company C, 513th PIR.
