    Had someone post to a 467th BG forum looking for info on her grandfather. Unfortunately, I have no record of her grandfather having served with the 467th BG, or any of it's attached units.

    She based that information on the flag in this photo. Can anyone identify the emblem on the flag?

    Thx

    While I haven' been able to locate the exact insignia, it look like that of many quartermaster corps.

    Lou,

    Looks pretty spot on to me. There was a 467th Quartermaster Group that served in Europe where the women said (after I posted this thread) her grandfather served.

    I very much appreciate the prompt responses.

    All the best

    Peter

    I must admit I had a chuckle looking at that image - all very serious looking, except for the guy in the first row, far left hand side, smoking a cigarette, glaring at the camera, with his arms more relaxed than the posed folded-arms of everyone else!
