In april 1962 I was sent to APC from photo school at Fort Monmouth with the MOS of 841.10. The col. during the orientation interview saw that I had some Art training and skill. he assigned me to Animation where worked with a tremendous talent Sgt. Yukio Tashiro. My primary duties were cleaning Hot Press letters and polishing cells.Later on was doing some inking and airbrushing of backgrounds.The biggest project I remember was a CITY UNDER THE ICE.A production about a base in Greenland.

Two days before I was supposed to go to La Rochelle France as a Pfc I was promoted to Spec4 This made my assignment in France to change when I arrived in Paris my orders had to be changed. They were looking for a Pfc in La Rochelle and I was a Spec4.I ended up with the 269th signal co. in Orleans. I would very much appreciate hearing from anyone from APC or 269 who recalls this period. My email is fguinee@hotmail.com
