Tobyledog Posted October 22, 2020 Share #1 Posted October 22, 2020 Hi all. Years ago I bought a box in Central France with many Black & White negatives on glass showing the above US Unit. They weren't in great condition when I got them & unfortunately a few years ago my Dad's roof leaked right into the box making them even worse. Today I dug them out & there is still a lot of useful information on them. Luckily the one with the details of the unit survived relatively intact. A couple of the negatives even have the soldiers details written on his bag. I would like to find a good home for them before they deteriorate even further. I have looked online & there seem to be several sites devoted to CAC but I thought I would ask here to see if anybody can recommend anywhere or is researching this unit in particular. Many thanks Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tobyledog Posted October 26, 2020 Author Share #7 Posted October 26, 2020 Amazing!!!! Many thanks! How did you do that? I wonder what other secrets are in the other negatives? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustinO Posted October 26, 2020 Share #8 Posted October 26, 2020 Its just an image filter/effect some software has called "invert." Post some of the others and I'd be happy to do the same for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobyledog Posted October 26, 2020 Author Share #9 Posted October 26, 2020 Thanks- I will do. There is one of the Officers one of whom is wearing some medals which I would like to identify. It's amazing the difference when "inverted" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
