Also from the other people I know that are in the picture I think this is the 81s “First Section” that Sgt “Baby Face” Wolford was in charge of. Also if this is a photo of the first section then they would have been attached to Echo Company. Since Echo is the first letter company of the 2nd Battalion that is how things were set up. Not always, but usually when a section (two guns) went out with a line company.
Anyway once I get more organized, I will post this “Big Sky and Gang” photo in our Gallery where you will be able to see it a little better and other photos too. Still at this time, I have so many pictures from my own collectiuon and so many flix from other 81s people, that it really takes a lot of planning in order to get the photos sorted correctly, thus ready for proper viewing etc. Also I recommend the Slide Show with Full Screen as I think it is the best way to view these pictures… but later on that stuff.

PS. I have already edited this message at least five times – including adding the above picute, so that is just another reason why this “WordPress/Nomad81s.com” program is so useful.
Sure it takes some time to get used to this program, but me and AL are here to help you guys understand things. Of course if you just want to view the page then all you have to do is probe around until you figure out the categories etc. Of course if you want to write posts and comments then you have to register. That is no big deal either, as it is a simple process. Hmm? Perhaps a little confusing at first but then what else is new with these computers?
