Default Question concerning Col. E.G. Buckner

I have one of the seven SBT (5th I believe) which was made in a manufacturing run in 1917. The Parker Letter states it was shipped to E. J. DuPont Company for Col. E. G. Buckner. 32 inch barrels with a Monte Carlo stock and Jostan Pad. Col. E. G. Buckner was Vice President of Military Sales for DuPont, on the staff of the Governor of Kentucky and published several articles concerning gun powder and explosives. I can't find any information on his military records and limited data on his life.
I have one paragraph claiming he was hunter and his office walls was covered with mounts.

Can anyone recommend another avenue for research on Col. Buckner?
