Bill Brouillard Jr. Posted March 13, 2023 Share Posted March 13, 2023 Had this pair (part of a group) for many years - PH 20607 and Mex Border 3643 - Someone erased the name from the PH however the Mex Border traced out to Thomas S. Whiting who was on the Border with the VA National Guard. In WWI he was commissioned in the Marine Corps and was severely wounded 2 times and was medically retired and awarded the Croix De Guerre. In 1942 he came off the retired list and was stationed at New River until he returned to the Retired List. Captain Whiting passed away in 1964. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
