swag Posted October 16, 2019 Share #38 Posted October 16, 2019 Although not a SP/7, thought folks would be interested to see a WAC SP/6 uniform. Hopefully someone will know the significance of the sunburst cloth underneath her collar brass. The accompanying caption for the picture reads: Specialist Six McCarthy, WAC Detachment, Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Md., accepts a letter of commendation from WAC School Commandant Colonel Michl in a ceremony Jan. 30 honoring the graduates of the WAC Noncommissioned Officers Leadership Course. Spec. 6 McCarthy was one of four women designated honor graduates. Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The link where this photo was posted indicates this picture was taken for his application to become a warrant officer. It appears his career was in the Military Police as a criminal investigator. https://www.fold3.com/page/14701574_john_a_christel/ So, I just discovered recently that someone posted this picture of my uncle, sans name board, to Wikipedia. It made me really happy to see him honored like that! https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specialist_(rank)#/media/File:Spc7chris.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here, this GI, a Nisei from Hawaii, a WWII Vet as we see, don't know what e did in WWII, or if he was in Korea as well, He was gunned down in the street in Saigon by undercover VC Operatives on Motor Scooters, the VC acting evidently autonomously and not part of a large unit.

Ramos again, this time in the RVN like in 1969, unit he was in unknown, too bad we can't see shoulder patch to get a general idea of his MOS. Note one and all that he's wearing Theater Made Spec 7 ranks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
