 "Jim,
Dusty and Don"
Jim Allen (Hq 1st) and 2 buddies whose names are uncertain
although Dusty's surname may be Malone.. Even the location is
unknown but Jim is flashing the "V" for Victory sign and Don is
holding what appears to be a white stein so we are assuming the
photo was taken in Germany. Anybody know who Dusty and Don
really are? |

 HQ3 Drill Team?
Men of HQ 3rd, including Earl Hickman, pose in what may be drill team
helmets. This would explain why those normally shiny jump boots
are grimed with dust |
