Pointedcuffs Posted May 6, 2013 Share #1 Posted May 6, 2013 About 15 years ago a fellow collector and good friend of mine asked had his mother in law to paint this portrait. The original picture of the First Sergeant can be found in Bill Emerson's book Chevrons. She one many awards and the local county fair with this painting and I have always loved it. Well today I was able to acquire it and now it has a new home among my 1902 collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pointedcuffs Posted January 9, 2022 Author Share #7 Posted January 9, 2022 I found his original picture on ebay recently. It is identified on the back as 1st Sergeant Amel Frey Company F 30th Infantry. Amel Frey Was KIA in WW1 as a Captain 1st Division 26th infantry Regiment.
