This is the conclusion of yesterday's posting of Chen family photographs. Many thanks to Scott and to the Chen family for providing these rare images.
As always, if you recognize any of the individuals in these photos, please leave a comment or drop me an email.
After taking a look at the name plates on the podium in the 7th photo, I think I've recognized a few people.
ReplyDeleteGeorge Whelan Anderson, Jr.(first from right in the front row) Flag Officer of Task Force 77

Since Rankin left Taiwan in Dec 1957 and there are 48 stars only on the U.S. national flag, I believe the photos were taken in the 1950s.
Victor,
ReplyDeleteYou can see VADM Doyle (USTDC Commander Jul 1957 to Jul 1958), hence this photo must have been taken between Jul 1957 and Dec 1957.

I think the person second from left in the front row in the 7th photo is Wang, Shu-Ming王叔銘, Chief of General Staff of ROC, July 1 1957-June 30 1959.

In the Seventh photo, there's a Chinese navy general who's totally hidden by the American navy general standing first from the right in the front row. The name plaque of this Chinese navy general says 「馬副部長」（Deputy Minister Ma）。
ReplyDeleteThis invisible navy general is Ma Ji Drong （馬紀壯）who was Deputy Minister of Defense Department from August 21 1955
to January 31 1959.
