Thanks, Darcy Flanagan
In the Nov/Dec 2012 issue we included a letter
on p. 6 from high school sophomore Darcy
Flanagan. She wrote:
Pictures Of The 1st Cavalry Division From The
Korean War
A few months ago my friend and I were in Cumberland
County, Virginia, when we stumbled upon some old
negatives. After doing some research and asking our
world history teacher about the uniforms and patches,
we found that they are most likely from the Korean
War.
It appears as though the patches belong to the 1st
Cavalry Division. I have attached some scanned
copies of the negatives we developed for you to look
at. (There should be nine attachments.) If you know if
they’re actually from the Korean War or not that would
be great!
Also, if you are interested we can send you some of
the developed images.
Thanks, Darcy Flanagan, darcyflanagan4@gmail.com
Well, we were interested and told Darcy
Flanagan so. True to her word, she sent us six photos,
with the attached note:
Dear KWVA,
Here are some of the pictures that we talked about in
an earlier email. Sorry about the delay in sending
them. I had some trouble developing them! I hope that
you enjoy the pictures and find a good place for them
too.
Please excuse any scratches, I am in my sophomore
year in high school, just learning how to develop
35mm film.
Sincerely,
Darcy Flanagan
If anyone recognizes the people or places in the
photos, let us know. We will pass the word on to
Darcy Flanagan.
