I just got some photos of my dad when he was stationed in the Philippine Islands during WW2. One of them is dated 1944. He was a navy radio man and went island to island following the Marines in to establish radio communications. I have been told they were with the second or third wave to take the beach. I have whats left of the trench art ashtray that we destroyed as kids playing with it. I am kicking myself now the only thing left it the large shell case and 50 cal on top.
Can anyone identify what the machine gun is. Some thought it might be an A1A by Auto Ordance.
I would like to leave as much information as I can to my daughter and grand daughters before its all lost and forgotten.
