I don't know if he had the official title of quartermaster tho.

He was mainly working as a quartermaster and armorer and occasionally driver to the CO when he wanted to go out on convoy. <br /><br />We had a a quonset hut on the ranch. They're preferred in the north because they don't cave so much with snow.<br /><br />I shall return!!Julie Weathershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13725236516593676381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6051039811201306685.post-50374205905097801722016-04-20T15:52:52.099-07:002016-04-20T15:52:52.099-07:00I love that word, quonset! ~Liz http://www.lizbrow...I love that word, quonset! ~Liz http://www.lizbrownleepoet.comLiz Brownleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00391982640958944942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6051039811201306685.post-57958507119638301902016-04-20T15:50:25.057-07:002016-04-20T15:50:25.057-07:00... was Q even in the books?
