Gary,

Thanks for the information, I did not have all of that. That is a picture of my uncle, and in fact, that is the ONLY picture I had of him as well. I have yet to get access to my Dads stuff, to see if he has more pictures of Charlie, so I would have to base any opinion of my uncle place in the unit from that exact same picture you posted. I would go so far as to say, the picture you posted is of better quality than the one I have from my Mom.

 

Thanks again my friend, I really appreciate it!!!,

Steve

ps: I have reached out by email to Hampton House to get a copy of the unit picture over a week ago, but have not received a reply yet.

Steve,

 

Glad I could help. This picture was attached to the family tree of a Betty Crawford on Ancestry.com. So, if you know who this is then you may have an avenue of investigation with this family member to see if she has any additional information on your Uncle. As for Hampton House, they did a wonderful job in every aspect of getting a copy of the unit photo except one... I first tried to email for some information and never heard back. I suggest you call and you should then have no problem and will be able to get the ball rolling on getting a copy.

 

As I get a chance, I am going to use the photo that I posted to see if I can locate him in the photo and will give you a heads up if I see someone that I think may be him.

 

See ya, my friend,

 

Gary
