  • Notes 
    • William Ladd Trollinger Sr. on his WWII DRC lists "Irene Gray" as the "Person Who Will Always Know Your Address". Irene Gray is no doubt his sister, Irene Trollinger (1904-1948) who was married to Paul Brown Gray. This serves as circumstantial evidence that William and Irene are brother and sister.
