      Interesting pictures.  I think GE's publicity department hired 
some models for a couple, for instance the second picture.  Too cute, 
also wearing dresses and high heels and long hair with no covering.   I 
rather think coveralls and snoods were more likely. Nice cheesecake.
      The last picture shows a Hallicrafters Sky Buddy.   I can't help 
with the cavalry radios.

Do you have a junker case in the pile that has a few that I can clean up and use?  These are notoriously "over-torqued" and the lips of the fastener flared, or the sides of the butterfly knob busted out.  I have a few that need to be replaced.

Here is the link to the webpage with a picture of the 107th Calvary regiment operating a horse-packed radio (you'll have to scroll down to near the bottom to see it).  I don't recognize the radio...I think it is an SCR-203 (BC-228 transmitter, the BC-227 receiver, and BC-235 control box).
