TEC/5 SYLVESTER J. BAYSINGER
.
Record of Burial
The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has this record on file which shows Sylvester's name just as "S. J. Baysinger" and a nickname of "Bud".  It also details that Bud was in Hq1st but doesn't record the burial details which may not yet have been available even though the record is dated in March 1947.  Transitions to the new permanent cemetery went on at least into 1948.
