Great resolution on the photo. Thanks Gary !

 

I can say without a doubt that my father, Sylvester A. Stuiber is the first man on the left in the second row, the one with his eyes closed.

I cropped him out of the picture and attached it, he's the one in the center. He was probably 19 years old at the time.

Kent,

 

Thanks, my friend! We all do what we can to further the cause of helping folks tell their relatives story and also to tell the story of this little known unit. I have something you can do if you would? We may have identified your Dad incorrectly on the unit photo and I now have another soldier from this photo for you to view. Can you tell me is this your father with his head down a bit shielding from the sun? I also attached a yearbook photo of him I found on Ancestry.

 

Thanks so much and please, take your shoes off and stay awhile. :)

 

Gary
