Am seeking information about Alexander Blissett of NavCo who served with the 12th Veterinary Hospital, WWI. My father was a member of this Hospital and it appears (from his discharge certificate) that both men left for Germany on Oct. 13, 1918. My son and I visited the base in Trier, Germany two years ago where my father) and probably Alexander) was stationed and I have pictures of the base during the time my father was there which might be of interest to any descendants of Alexander. Because military records were destroyed by fire several years ago in St. Louis, it would be most helpful to me to gain more insight into the service record of Alexander, since both men served together and possibly knew each other. Any help deeply appreciated.
