Help researching blood chit


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello everyone. I recently acquired this blood chit pictured below. It looks to be an original late WWII issue with a high serial number. What's interesting is the name "J. Quinn" or something similar is written on the back of the chit. 

I've done some quick research and came upon a William J. Quinn mentioned on December 15. 1945 issue of Tiger Rag (see attached pic). There were also mentions of Lt. Col William J. Quinn who commanded some units coming out of CBI in the 60s-80s. Does anyone know how to find resources that might be able to provide other possible matches like rosters of units?
