It's a similar problem with this late 20s into the 30s guy, as Colorized portrait as well I posted it asking for ID help too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patches Posted November 28, 2023 Author Share #208 Posted November 28, 2023 One 1st Sergeant Lyle E. White of the 14th Infantry Panama Canal Zone 1937, White designed some kind of trigger less rifle, can't find anything really on that online, Found this photo and the story on the weapon in a November 1937 Army Periodical, he also was awarded a Soldiers Medal as you see. Much to my surprise he is talked about this Lyle E. White, but as a case of the wrong man for a medal grouping or something. Here's the rather confused dialogs on him, member emccomas, looking for a definitive ID on a medal https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/96234-question-about-purple-hearts/#comment-709363 https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/341358-ph-7383-still-looking-for-the-recipient/#comment-2743189 https://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/160297-lyle-e-white-followup-more-info/#comment-1212574 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
