louie Posted May 30, 2020 Share #1 Posted May 30, 2020 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

copper252 Posted June 2, 2020 Share #4 Posted June 2, 2020 Well if there is a white diamond on the sleeve i'd expect him to have been discharged in 1944 or early 1945. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ray42 Posted June 2, 2020 Share #6 Posted June 2, 2020 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. Edit: adding the muster roll ended up far blurrier then I hoped, if you are interested in the info I can screen shot it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
