This is the picture that hangs on the wall in Millington. TN.; all Force Master Chief's have their pictures on this wall.

 

My concern is that a career Aircrewman is wearing dolphins, which makes me question whether the picture is correct. The timeline doesn't match his service record either, which is unfortunate because I'd love to have his picture to go along with the uniform.

Old post but don’t think that’s the correct guy. Given the service record you found and the lack of ww2 ribbons (at the very least a victory ribbon).
