241st Signal Ops Co - Camp Beale, CA - 1943

In May or June of 1943, my dad was stationed at Camp Beale, CA.

He was part of the 241st Signal Opns Co. that eventually was sent to Okinawa and Korea.

Sadly official government records of his service were lost in a fire as many other WWII veterans.

Recently I learned from a WWII vet of that a group photo had been taken of the entire company.
Since I have a blog, a G+ account, a Facebook account, I figured I would post a message and see if anyone can give me some direction to locate this photo or any other information about the 241st.

There are several WWII websites which are excellent, but so far I haven't made much progress in my search, however I have great faith in the collective mind of the internet.

Thanks to all the WWII vets for their service.

Scott Brown Victory in Massachusetts

Email is not the proper forum for discussion so I created a place-holder topic on this PUBLIC site to discuss the recent historic election of Scott Brown, a republican in the very blue state of Massachusetts. Keep it civil folks! I am the moderator of this blog and I can block comments that are off topic or nasty. The Democrats are already in a circular firing squad looking for someone to blame but this victory did not surprise me, even though I'm a bleeding heart liberal. I was upset with the special treatment that some of the senators got for supporting health care, or maybe jealous because our senator Jeanne Shaheen wasn't clever enough to hold out for more. I still have hope for Obama's presidency, but I did detect a bit of back room Chicago style politicking. I didn't care for the secret meetings when I was "hoping" for the transparency and the online postings of legislation. So weigh in with your opinions here instead of sending "reply to all&qu

I'm Joe the Plumber

On a recent morning walk, my friend John Poltrack suggested that maybe I would have been a better icon to represent the proverbial small business man than the now world famous Joe the Plumber . John the Software Engineer owns his own business, employs people, and pays a good chunk of his business income in taxes. I think I pay too much in taxes, but of course everybody thinks that. I made the mistake one time of sitting down and calculating how much of Big Time Software’s income actually goes out in taxes of way form or another and the answer is a very discouraging 50%. That qualifies as too much in my opinion…and I still consider myself a patriot despite what Joe Biden might think. My business makes more money than Senator Obama seems to think I deserve to keep, so I can look forward to being in his crosshairs to pay even more should he be elected President. I certainly don’t want to attract the scrutiny of the crack investigative media teams that have unearthed every skeleton in p
