This is a VERY large photo and will take some time to load.

This photo was sent in by Phillip Casados whose grandfather, R. L. Webb was a member of 'C' Company.

A note from our Assistant Historian, Norm RIchards:

"The picture identified by Casados as being the 359/C is misidentified. It is actually a photo of the 359/HQ 1st Battalion, taken at Ft. Dix, NJ in Feb.'44 not Camp Barkley.
I think the confusion comes from the fact that Mr Casados relative, R.L. Webb appears on morning reports as having been transferred to 359/C from 359 HQ 1st Bat. when the 359th was in combat overseas. I believe that 359/C was Webb's last unit in which he served, thus the confusion."
