This section highlights various military units assigned to the Aleutian’s theater of war. Sources for this information comes from individual guestbook postings of the past, shared information from veterans who served there during WWII, and from the book “Order of Battle.” The following list includes all units that we have discovered to date having served in the Aleutians during WWII. The left column includes numerical unit designations, the right column includes alphabetic unit designations (not related to the numerical units). Highlighted links lead to additional website material for that unit. This listing is more than likely not complete, nor otherwise verified.
Additional links will be connected to this new listing as I find them on our site…as of yet not all units from all pages have been linked! Additional units have been added by individuals who are included in our “Attu WWII Veterans” listing.
