can anyone help?

is this a (ww2) navy captain? and probably no chance but has anyone seen him before???? I got this picture with a hat I got. thank you

 

Where?

 

picture did not take I'll try again

 

4 Stripes around the sleeve is a Captain and if im not mistaken, the star means he is either a line officer or either on an Admirals Staff? Im so unused to American stuff that I have forgotten about what most of it is.

 

Thanks Carl I am searching google to try and find who it is, the hat I did learn about Gerald F Hart:Letter Collection--MTB Squadron 22 - U.S. Militaria Forum

 

Carl, I think I found who it is not completely sure though Charles Butler Mcveigh III :http://the.honoluluadvertiser.com/dailypix/2006/Jun/20/FPI606200353V1_b.jpg

Hi Jason, welcoem and-he certainly resembles the Captain ;-))

 

Thank you formerjughead and Carl, the picture you said is the same one is just the photo I used to compare I kinda borrowed it the one attached is the one I got, there is no writing on the back and it does not glow under u.v light not that it makes it 100% just tested it to see

 

Hi Jason, I just noticed two things. 1) McVeigh doesnt have a cleft on his chin-like the other Kapitan does. Also, I noticed their ribbon bars are drastically different so I cant see the other guy being McVeigh. Actually, he reminds me more of Dwayne Hickman (Dobie Gillis) of Dobie Gillis, fame ;-))

 

Darn I'll have to search google some more!

 

sherlock holmes time jason, is somebody? or could he be just anybody?

 

Ray, it is the second gunman from the kennedy assasination!

 

Heh heh, Inspector Clouseau and Sherlock Holmes both, are on the case ;-)) OR shall I say that Abbott and Costello and Laurel and Hardy all-are on the case ;-))
