He looks like he's perhaps Artillery right as he not wear the Blue, but Rocha is sent to South Vietnam in late 1967. KIA, as a Infantryman with the 101, and his rank is Specialist 4th Class, but then the rank of Corporal E 4 was something some E 4s floated back and forth right, depended on his new assignment perhaps, curious though about his MOS in the 82nd. https://www.virtualwall.org/dr/RochaRG01a.htm Looks like Ordnance Corps to me.
patches Posted June 12, 2022 Author #102 Posted June 12, 2022 A rather mucked up photo of an Aviation School Corporal in the 60s, a most curious on as you see. He is a former Navyman, with 6 to 8 years of former service, a Air Crewman, is in the Army now, but has not as yet undergone the Army's Helicopter Repairman/Crewman AIT, which would of been given a Ft Eustis Virginia.. and he is wearing either Infantry Crossed Rifle disc or an Armor disc
patches Posted October 22, 2023 Author #103 Posted October 22, 2023 A Corporal of the 104th Training Division very late 50s, early-mid 60s, perhaps a Drill Corporal.
patches Posted December 1, 2023 Author #104 Posted December 1, 2023 A Corporal of the 89th Training Division probably a Drill Corporal, an odd one, note the 3rd Armored Cavalry Regiment Patch on it, here we gather its another case of a man's previous assignment where he keeps unit insignia still sewn on in his next duty assignment, in this instance a Regular who did his time, got out, and re-ups in his local Reserves.
