Other information
This photo is significant as it is visual representation of the history of the Battalion. Text alone would not suffice to describe the officers during World War II. With this historical photo, it clearly identifies the men who served in the unit and those who serve now in the 92nd Engineer Battalion can see who led the unit during the war.
