Hi Bill - In my post, in which I posted the pictures, I am pretty sure I identified the 'Patriots' pictured. Gen. George S. Patton's granddaughter-in-law is Joanne Holbrook Patton and is the wife of the General's grandson. I don't know what his name was but he is deceased. The picture of the young soldier is of my father-in-law, Frank A. Nerden, taken when he was on leave in Australia. The last picture of the gentleman in the American flag necktie is Col. Richard A. Moody, USAF Ret. and is the founder of Operation Troop Support and was a childhood neighbor and good friend of mine.
