While looking in the red covered GM-H 1940 repair manual, I came across this signature and army service number . He signed his name in a few other pages.
A quick search in the naa system found his records. Archibald Glover was shipped to New Guinea in July 1942, he spent 1 and 1/2 years there . He was transferred to the 158 General Transport Company. His unit was involved in a tragedy in Port Moresby , a B-24 bomber crashed into parked trucks and over 50 people were killed , including members of his unit.
