HI All. My uncle was in Basic Training at Camp Peary, VA during mid-1943. He joined the Navy in May of 1943 and I think basic was 8 weeks so he would have graduated in early July?? Then off to cook and baker school. Would anyone know if the photos were taken around graduation of basic or when you first get there?

 

Also, I'm looking for the same information for the US Army in 1945. My father enlisted in 1945, took basic and AIT at Ft, knox and left for Germany in March of 1946.

 

Lastly, anyone know of a good source for the yard long photos for this time frame? I have units listed for my father especially but would need to know when they took the photos, graduation or earlier?

 

Thanks.... Allen
