I was with the Mobile Unit while it went to Camp Gordon, Fort Benning, Fort Bragg, and West Point. I have pictures of that time.
 

I left the Mobile Unit in the late spring of 1954 when I was transferred back to the main studios.
I was at the main studios until I was discharged October 1954.

I have been recently putting together a personal history. In looking at your web site for some pictures, I see there is not much information about the early television effort.

I served with the SCPC Mobile Television Unit, and at the Main Studio from about June 1953 to October 1954.

I have pictures of some of the Mobile Unit personnel and the vans / equipment if you have any interest.

I was with the Mobile unit when we demonstrated television capability at Camp Gordon, West Point, Fort Benning (jump school), and Fort Bragg (Operation Flashburn).

Sorry to say I do not have all the names of the people. I do remember Joe Flaherty at the main studio, and Roger Damm of the Mobile Unit on your 'people who served' list.
