Info required on Lt-Col M F Nickle ( OC 78th FG ) - KIA in action

Good night for all!
I tried to find the full name and USAAF service number of this officer, but got no joy...
Any information on the FULL name of Lt-Col NICKLE and his service number would be welcomed; as well as about the condecorations received, or previous career.
Thanks
Adriano
