Yeah. I thought it was odd, too. I saw some photos of black signal corpsmen somewhere. I'll have to go find it, again.
Of course, I don't know when the photos were taken. Maybe 6 weeks after the landing or 6 months. But if it was later, then why set up a signal station there in the flat lands surrounded by mountains?? I'm sure these guys were not with the front-line troops but rather with a HQ unit.
When did the 34th Division land there? I know the 45th Division was a floating reserve and came in on the 2nd day, I believe.
