Association of 3D Armored Division Veterans

In Memory

My Image File Again, Lord, we raise our voices to uphold our vow that we would not forget them. Our fellow veterans of the 3rd Armored Division who served so valiantly and with determination that others might experience what we enjoy of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Help us as we continue the fight for these unalienable rights. May we be examples to others. Amen.

This prayer from our own World War II Veteran Walter Stitt

My Image File Basil M. Cook, killed in action serving his country in Huchein, Germany, November 25, 1944, during World War II. He was a tank operator, and the tank he was operating, was hit with a land mine. His body was buried in The Netherlands, and remained there until DNA testing was able to identify his remains.

The remains of U.S. Army Pvt. 1st Class Basil M. Cook, 31, killed during World War II, will be interred Aug. 6 at Restwood Memorial Gardens, Hinton, West Virginia. Pivont Funeral Home will perform graveside services preceding the interment.

Cook was a member of Company H, 3rd Battalion, 32nd Armored Regiment, 3rd Armored Division when his unit was engaged in battle with German forces near Hücheln, Germany. A mine explosion is believed to have killed Cook instantaneously. His remains were not immediately recovered or identified after the fighting.

The Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency eventually accounted for Cook on Sept. 6, 2025.
