Fellows,
The uniforms are Ike's. WWII, Korean era and into the 1955 time span.
One fellow has a PFC stripe on his sleeve.
Later the pants and shirts became the same color and fabric and we lost the
tie.
This was called Kaki and was a summer dress uniform.
We still had dress greens with a jacket and fatigues.
You did not wear a jacket with this uniform.
It was shoes, pants, shirt and tie.
Mostly an indoor headquarters type uniform.
The site looks like a signal corp tranceiver site.
Lights in some of the rooms because the florcent ballest made to much RF hash
and got into the receivers and transmitters.
We used better than average ballast in the receiver sites to avoid the noise
and the fixtures were well screened and grounded to help reduce the 60 cycle
hum also.
