No one has seen such a picture. I'll check with historical
associations in Alabama where some of the 149th served, but that will
take a while.
My great grandfather, and my friend's grandfather, were the first
sergeants of E and F companies. I would guess that B company might
have found a photographer and taken the picture without a whole lot of
planning, and the other companies didn't get in on it. Do you know
where B company served? F Co. was in Decatur, Alabama, on a 100 days'
enlistment, where the 149th was doing railroad security at the end of
the war.
