Looking for a Photo of Pfc. Talmage Edward Dawson (1894?-1974) of Kansas

Brian Paul Kaess

Looking for a Photo/image of my Grandpa Pfc. Talmage Edward Dawson (1894?-1974) of Kansas- he was in the Great War/WWI. He was a member of Hq's Co, 351st Inf Reg, 88th Division in France. There is a family rumor that he fought in Russia in 1919-1920. Don't use the postcard photo of him at familysearch and find a grave, because it is just a hand-me-down postcard from WWI, not a photo of him. I tried the World War Honor Books for Shawnee County and Crawford County (Kansas) and he isn't there. He was a Linotype Operator for the U.S. Govt. (GPO) in the early 1940's, so maybe he shows up in a government employee photo.

    Need help,

    Above are three photos, the 1st is of Talmage Edward Dawson, circa 1942. The 2nd is of Talmage from a U.S. Govt. Printing Office ID Card. The 3rd is from an Enhanced Photo of Talmage. All of these images were pulled from an Offical Personnel File (OPF) for Talmage E Dawson that was found at National Archives, St. Louis, courtesy of George Fuller. The File is 107 pages long. This individual Image, recently come to light,  is the only individual one of him known in the Family.
