Sgt Von Logsdon
Sgt Von W Logsdon was a member of 1/501PIR 101st Airborne. He originated from Kentucky and he enlisted into the army in 1942.
His jumps wings have been fitted with a invasion arrow to symbolise an amphibious invasion. This would mean he took part in the D-Day drop. The 501st DUI is made of blue plastic and his name bracelet is Sterling silver.
Von can be seen at the back of the picture with the moustache, makes him an easy person to find in pictures. This picture was taken in the spring of 1945 in France.
Thank you to Mark Bando for the picture which is from his personal collection.
