Good Afternoon,
I am trying to find any information about my grandfather and his service in the OSS during WWII. He passed away in 1958 and I only have bits and pieces.
The personnel records for the OSS were finally released, but his were located in St. Louis, MO and were burned in the fire there in 1973.
This is the information I have:
Donald Goldwyn Bassett
He served in Burma as a dog handler and paratrooper in the OSS.
He enlisted in 1943.
His dog was named "Judge" and delivered coded messages. Judge did return to the states with him.
I'm interested in finding out anything more about his experience. If there are any web sites or books that might help me in this search I would appreciate having that information.
