James Travis McElrath on Attu Island

My Dad (James Travis McElrath) is bottom row far right. He would never talk about being in the Aleutian Islands. I have a U.S. Army photo album full of pictures. Most of these I cannot identify. So this is a mystery photo as I cannot identify for sure the rest of the men.

I have a U.S. Army photo album of my Daddy's full of pictures. Most of these I cannot identify. So this is a mystery photo as I cannot identify for sure the rest of the men. Some of the pictures I have are fairly graphic. Plane crashes and such. I plan to post more.

Date & Place: 1944 at Attu Island in USA
