Terrain in background looks more like Japan than Ft Eustis or Ft Bragg. Few hills in the Ft Bragg area and even fewer in Ft Eustis area. I was stationed at Langley AFB and flew over most of the terrain between there and Ft Bragg many times. Mountains are well to the west of both locations as I recall.

Can&#39;t be 100% sure, but based off that angle it looks probable. Maybe you can request records from the National Archives.<br /><br />vetrecs.archives.gov/VeteranRequest Response by SPC Private RallyPoint Member made Apr 9 at 2023 2:31 PM 2023-04-09T14:31:03-04:00 2023-04-09T14:31:03-04:00 CSM Richard StCyr 8226459 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>looks like 8th army Response by CSM Richard StCyr made Apr 12 at 2023 1:32 PM 2023-04-12T13:32:26-04:00 2023-04-12T13:32:26-04:00 2023-04-04T19:43:10-04:00
