Thanks so very much to Joyce Bever. This is her uncle, Col. Arthur Joseph Lehman, born November 19, 1898 in Montgomery County to John Wesley and Marena Kersey Lehman, and who attended Darlington HS, graduated from Wabash College, in 1921. He was the 7th of 11 children. He joined the Army two years after Wabash, and remained in the service until his death. Prior to leaving for the South Pacific he was instructor at Kellogg Field in Battle Creek Michigan. You can read much more about Col. Lehman here This is so cute, had to have TWO Photos of the week :) A Sunday School class at the Waveland Baptist Church (uptown where the Sisters Flower Shop and earlier the Hotel and a restaurant for several years) - circa 1962-63 - Thanks to Dave Fullenwider who is the smiley face on the front row - he's a hoot.
