This week features a private photo from 1942 showing early US Army uniform details. The unit is unidentified, but one of the photos in the collection is labelled as "The 562 561-E.?.C. just before going across."

I suspect this may be the 561st Boat Maintenance Company at Camp Edwards which departed in August 1942. The film was developed and printed in September 1942 in Massachusetts.
