Oh you were that guy.I spent 1989 and 1990 as the drill instructor, which makes the guys retiring now still call me "Captain Bowman". This is about the last picture of me in 1991 as an engine company Captain before becoming Assistant Chief.
That came later that year.Yeah, but no beard!
It just moved about 12 inches down.. that's all.This is easiest we have for me. Maybe late 1966 or 1967?
Look at that I did have hair!!
Thanks smokeywolf, had a fun hour researching SoCal uniforms from the 1910's.Great Grandpa was a New York mounted police officer who moved to SoCal in the early 1900s and became chief of police of a small city, I think (according to my father) near Long Beach. Looks more like the uniform of a fire chief to me.
