Il 24 maggio 2014 a Terelle (FR), si é tenuta una cerimonia di inaugurazione di un cippo commemorativo dedicato alla memoria di 'Clinton W. Thomas e dei valorosi uomini del 142° Reggimento di Fanteria della 36ª Divisione di Fanteria (Texas)'. Clinton e i suoi compagni furono riportati come dispersi in azione il 3 febbraio del 1944 mentre stavano combattendo nell'area di Terelle. Ciò accadde nel corso di quella che ricordiamo come la prima battaglia di Cassino. Il piastrino identificativo del soldato Clinton W.Thomas fu rinvenuto nel 2010 durante alcuni sopralluoghi preliminari effettuati dai membri dell'Associazione sui campi di battaglia e poi inviato ai suoi familiari in Tennesse. La realizzazione del cippo e la cerimonia sono state ideate ed organizzate dall'Associazione Linea Gustav - Centro studi e ricerche storico militari con la collaborazione del Comune di Terelle. Alla cerimonia ha presenziato l'addetto militare dell'ambasciata americana in Roma, Colonnello Phillips Cuccia.

Segnaliamo un articolo di Alberto Turinetto di Priero, pubblicato sul sito Dal Volturno a Cassino, che descrive le fasi salienti di questa vicenda attraverso una intervista rilasciata dal Presidente dell'Associazione, Damiano Parravano:
