There is a website put by the daughter of one of the individuals of this unit. That website described documents her father had about the Unit including this book. Apparently there was a newspaper/newsletter called, The Muzzleburst, and the staff of that newsletter put together this book. Here's what she had to say about this Unit History: "The March Order of the battalion was printed and published in pernay, France while the various U.S. army units were awaiting transport back to the United States. Their stay there after the end of the war seems to have lasted somewhere between three and six months. The members of the 567th were quite scattered in different tent city camps there. However, during their stay there several members of each battery and headquarter's battery began publishing a newspaper for the whole battalion. Publication of The Muzzleburst began in Forchheim, Germany and continued (as far as I know) until the beginning of September 1945. The March Order of the battalion was published by the staff of The Muzzleburst about five months after VE Day." SM7
