Camp Blanding - 1942

Fort Benning - 1943


Light Machine Gun Platoon
of HQ 1st is one of the very few photos of 508th men while training in Florida.  This photo, unfortunately, has numbers penned in for most of the men pictured but no legend appears to detail their names.  Jim Wynne recalls that the photo was given to him by Larry Fitzpatrick but is unsure of the men's names.

Qualified Parachutist
distinction was bestowed on Jim after he completed the requisite five jumps "from a plane in flight" on Feb 26, 1943.
