    Thanks, here you are. He is the one that the marked "Me" is pointing at.





    They were supposed to be having a "GI" party which is why all of their bunks are outside. I guess that there is always a little time for some horsin' around. Oh, yeah, the one in white was one of their cooks.

    His first assignment from Camp Robinson was occupied Germanyicon. Since they didn't need rifleman they made him part of the Constabulary Forces. He retired 21 years later.
