 Lou,
I checked the records that were transcribed from the un-indexed microfilm and was unable to find your record.
Unfortunately, less than 15% of the records were transcribed and the rest never will be.
I was fortunate that no only did my Father have his company picture, he had the names of all of the men who were in it. I've had lunch with one of them and spoken with another of them.

There is no way to determine what company you were in, and the company numbers were reused repeatedly. There were at least 5 company 564's, 2 of them in 1944. Your company would have started with a 4. Company 451 entered Sampson on 3/8/45, so I would guess it was 420 something, but that's only a guess.

Callahan = 1, Dewey = 2, Edwards = 3. Farragut = 4, Gilmore = 6

Take care,
Russ
