Ever wondered who took photos during World War II? Come find out at Back in Time at the Barn on the 12th!
The Barn will host Joe Bookout, who will be portraying the 165th Signal Photographic Company.
The 165th was a specialized unit during World War II that was tasked with documenting and preserving the war effort. Instead of being armed with a rifle, they were armed with camera equipment. Signal Corps cameramen were responsible for the footage captured during the Normandy Landings and other battles throughout the war.
Joe will be taking photos on his Argus camera from the period for $2.
