Delta1on1 Posted September 8, 2020 Share #1 Posted September 8, 2020 I purchased this camera, case, tripod, and other accessories belonging to 1st Lt. Charles A. McCarthy of the 161st Signal Photographic Company off eBay last year. There was little information about Charles online, so the seller was unable to put the name with a face or a unit. Luckily I had some of the 161st's Historical Records that mentioned McCarthy during his special assignments and promotions. Originally the company’s Laboratory Officer he would later become the Executive Officer in early November of 1943. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
