Dear family,
My name is Brian Eldridge, I am a clarinetist with the US Army Field Band from Washington DC, and the band's historian. I have a very nice photo of a gentleman in uniform holding a clarinet, pointing to a newspaper article about the US Army landing on Bataan. This was 1945-& the photo is marked "Teofilo de la Cruz." The photo was from the First Combat Infantry Band, which was the predecessor to our band, and was made up of combat veterans who had returned from WWII. I am wondering if this is the Teofilo from your family -- I am guessing he looks to be in his mid 30s in this photo, so the age would be about right. Please reach out to me if you have a chance -- I'd love to share the photo, along with others, and learn more about his story and service in WWII.
Thank you!
Brian
