seanmc1114 Posted June 24, 2020 Share #103 Posted June 24, 2020 Commanders of the Hawaiian Division and Hawaiian Department. I believe the Hawaiian Division commander is Major General Halsted Dorsey (based on the Distinguished Service Cross) and the Hawaiian Department Commander is Major General Hugh Drum. If so, this would date the picture to 1935. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seanmc1114 Posted August 12, 2020 Share #116 Posted August 12, 2020 45h Infantry Division swastika SSI. "A member of the American National Guard, 1939. A member of the 45th Division of the National Guard removes the swastika from his uniform. The division, made up of members of the Federal States of Oklahoma, Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona, took over the swastika as a symbol of happiness from the Indians, but now abandoned it because of its use by the National Socialists in Germany.

seanmc1114 Posted June 16, 2021 Share #125 Posted June 16, 2021 Here's several members of the 185th Infantry Regiment of the California National Guard's 40th Infantry Division. Note that most of the SSI appear to be sewn on by hand. And also note that many of the soldiers are wearing the California National Guard Honor Award for 100% drill attendance. These were most likely taken in the early to mid-30's since you can make out the dates on the bars of at least one of the badges - 1931 and 1932.
