I was scanning my Dad’s Hawaiian Album and these were all his friends. They all served in “I” Company of the 35th Regiment, 24th Infantry Division, Schofoeld Barracks, Hawaii in and around 1941. I’m posting these pictures in hopes that their kids and grandchildren are looking for them. Please leave me word in the comments if you made a connection. Good Luck.

I also made a similar post like this is my blog a year ago. It was nice to be able to reach out with the families of the men belonging in the same company with my granddad.

Who was your Grandpa?
Thanks for this. My Uncle Robert McPhail was in L Company 35th Reg. 25th Inf Div. He survived WWII then went on to fight in Korea.
He died, still in service, in 1962. I am desperately trying to find out more about his experience. It took forever for the military to find his records. He was very highly decorated with a bronze star, 2 silver stars, and a distinguished service cross. They reinstated the presidential citations for my Mom before she died. I am sure many of these men here and Robert fought close by and knew each other. Those Fine Young Men! Thanks again!
correction for typo: Robert was in L co, 35th reg, 24th inf div, right along side these men here you posted. ( typo stated 25th inf div.)
