mortaydc60 Posted November 12, 2020 Share #1 Posted November 12, 2020 This drawing was probably made WW2 era or so and depicts Capt. Marvel riding a bomb. It is/was located on a railway bridge abutment in Pittsford,NY a suburb of Rochester,NY. Does anyone know the unit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray42 Posted November 12, 2020 Share #2 Posted November 12, 2020 The way the projectile is flat at the back makes it look more like an artillery shell then a bomb, maybe it is for a field artillery unit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tredhed2 Posted November 12, 2020 Share #3 Posted November 12, 2020 Any forts in the area, whether active/inactive? Drum (then Pine Camp) seems too far away. Or arsenals? Lotta civilians had insignia from the "Home Front". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airborne-Hunter Posted November 12, 2020 Share #4 Posted November 12, 2020 I tend to think this is more of a patriotic thing as opposed to a specific unit. I would expect to see a number or something to make it unit specific to a unit. That said there is a unit in Europe (IIRC) that used Buck Rogers....but I have yet to see any insignia to that unit yet. Best ABN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mortaydc60 Posted November 13, 2020 Author Share #5 Posted November 13, 2020 Thanks guys. There are military bases near by in Syracuse which was Samson, and Drum both 1 hr drive or less. Will check for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
