Tafische Posted January 10, 2020 Share #1 Posted January 10, 2020 Had a family funeral this past weekend and came across a small set of pictures that appear to be candids of guys goofing off from WW1. They are on AZO postcards (4 triangle up). We are trying to figure out if some might have been family members. Best I have been able to determine is this is US Army and the guy in the front is a First Sergeant. I have not been able to find anything about the collar insignia - some have CWC and others say just WC. Any insight you could give me would be much appreciated! Link to post Share on other sites

gwb123 Posted January 10, 2020 Share #3 Posted January 10, 2020 It's not my area of expertise, but I think those uniforms pre-date World War I.

Logan C. Posted June 28, 2020 Share #4 Posted June 28, 2020 Those uniforms look to be Spanish American war era uniforms. The campaign caps they have look like hats that I have seen in pictures of that era. I'm no expert in this area but that is my guess. Another note is that the soldiers with cowboy looking hats are the ones i'm referring to. Link to post Share on other sites
jprostak Posted June 28, 2020 Share #5 Posted June 28, 2020 Cadets, Sons of Veterans, you name it, but by the insignia on the hats, the age of a couple of the boys, I 'd say not US Army.

hawk3370 Posted July 19, 2020 Share #6 Posted July 19, 2020 1902 period bell crown caps. I would say between 1902 and 1910. Link to post Share on other sites
