This soldier was an ancestor (great-great-uncle maybe?) of my half siblings. My oldest sister came across this picture in a Time Life book while she was doing genealogy and was struck by the resemblance to our brother. She was able to track down the original picture and eventually identified him. Thought you might be interested in the story. 🙂
