The black and white photos are my earlier days [1969] in the 560th. Someone help me please! I'm almost sure he was a Wrecker operator [Evac] but I can't remember his name.  This was what we did best, cooking on the grill outside the hooch. The one in the middle pointing to his eye and the one on the right looking at the camera look a whole lot like these two on the left in the pictures from "old man" Perkins. He would probably remember the machinist I replaced too. His nickname was "Swet" [short for Sweatinger I think]. I have pictures of him somewhere.
On the left: He was from Philly and he was a Wrecker man. Note the difference in the walls from the picture on the right. The hooches were one story and the space was set up for ten two men bays with two NCO rooms at the one end.  That is Wilson on the left [in charge of Evac]  and SSG Carrol on the right [Service Section NCOIC].
