The Retrospective gives special
thanks to Bill Phillips for providing this unique photograph for inclusion on the Retrospective web site. Bill writes...
This photograph was made by the Camp Claiborne Photo Shop on September 12, 1942. This photo, taken at Camp Claiborne, shows the regular and relief drivers who delivered Coca-Cola to the Camp from the Alexandria Coca-Cola Bottling Company. The trucks used at the time are behind the drivers.
I can positively identify one person in the photograph: He is James Wilbur Phillips, Sr., my father. He is the second from the right end of the men sitting. He went by his middle name, and was from Boyce.
At least two others in the photograph are also from Boyce: Sammy Marler and J.C. Cudd.
If you can identify others in the photograph, please contact Bill or The Retrospective Staff.
