The 148th was part of the 1110 engineer combat group. Came ashore d-day +5 and +8 at Utah beach. There is a history of 1110th available from the Nat'l Archives. Here is more advice: * Try going to www.askjeeves.com and typing in 148th Combat Engineer. This will give you all the sites that have information about the 148th. I did this for the USS Randolph and found out a lot of information about the ship my Grandfather was on and I also was able to get in touch with a couple of men that were on the ship with him. Some knew him, some didn't. * Go to the "Normandy Allies" web site and scroll down until you find the address for the 148th Combat Engineers. Then contact them, they are your best bet for information. * My dad was a medic with the 148th. Took basic training at Camp Shelby. Landed on Utah Beach June 7,1944 Was in Eisenach, Germany at end of war.
The 146th Combat Engineers hace an association. They can be reached at this web address and scrolling down to locate their unit.

Yes, they do- and use them quite well.
No. You must actually hold an 11 series (Infantry) Primary MOS while in a combat zone to be awarded a CIB. Combat Engineers get awarded the CAB (Combat Action Badge) for instances of direct contact with the enemy. The only engineers eligible for the CIB are those who hold the 18C - Special Forces Engineer Sergeant - MOS; all Special Forces personnel, with the exception of medical personnel, are eligible for the CIB.
