James C. Gerhart, Major, US Army, WWII, Philippines
I am seeking information for a writing project about Major James C. Gerhart of Santa Fe, New Mexico. He was stationed in the Philippines during WWII.
In January 1945, Major James C. Gerhart was with the 1st Cavalry Division. The First Cav Div with the 44th Tank Battalion attached, liberated Santo Tomas Internment Camp where nearly 4,000 civilian internees and POWs were near death from starvation.
