Subject: [ROOTS-L] BENSON Alcan Highway

My cousin Arne Gerhard Benson worked on hiway in the 40's, b. 1907 d. 1943.
Mom had a booklet in the 50's on the building of the hiway.  I want to know
if there is a role of the personnel who did this work.  I have found his
enlistment record for the State of WA which suggests he was previously
enlisted but without details, possibly as a Merchant Marine. He was
stationed out of Ft. Lewis, WA. 
Thank you.
