This is a jacket I have had for ages.  Bought it at the Pomona Gun Show in 90's.  Any idea who this guy was?  It has a generic 1st MAC patch, and a white diamond on the right side.  thanks in advance.

Well if there is a white diamond on the sleeve i'd expect him to have been discharged in 1944 or early 1945.

It is him I think, if you look at the muster roll for Jack W Johnson in October 1944 which I included it shows that he was discharged on that date so he must have reenlisted and that is probably when he was assigned to the ordinance company in 1945. I believe it also says that he was the NCO in charge of the BAR range.  A 1944 discharge would make sense with the discharge diamond and maybe the MAC makes sense for someone assigned to a rifle range detachment. Sounds like a nice uniform.
