Thanks for your patience and assistance with this one. The photo probably isn't clear enough to read the sign behind Harry Gordon WOOD, but I've posted it anyway. It is dated 1941 on the back. Maybe someone can tell me what branch of the service it is. That will be a start! Please don't tell me it isn't a Canadian uniform. <G> The URL where it has been uploaded to is....... http://www.geocities.com/courtie_mae/bonnie/hgwood.jpg If you can tell me anything, please do. I'm going to try to take it into the photo shop tomorrow to see if they have better luck zooming in on the sign. I can get some of it with a magnifying glass, but zooming in just made everything a bit more of a blur. Thanks again for your help. Bonnie Perth, Western Australia
