[Wounded Soldier]
The postcard caption partially reads: Survivor of the Battle of Carrizal. It seems that the African American sergeant is the recent survivor of the Battle of Carrizal (Metz, Leon, Fort Bliss, page 83). The African American sergeant has three chevrons on his right uniform sleeve and appears to be one of the highest ranking men among this group of men. He is also wearing driver's goggles on his hat. There is no accompanying information given about his identity. According to feedback from a Portal user, "The unidentified soldier is almost certainly Sergeant Walter Lyons, Troop C, 10th Cavalry, born either 1883 or 1886 in Tennessee, killed while stationed at Fort Huachuca, AZ on 25 Nov 1922. He was survived by his wife Ellis Douglas Lyons and two small children (about 1 and 2 yrs of age.)" The postcard was post marked out of El Paso, Texas, February circa 1915 – 1920 and is addressed to: Mrs. C H Breslin, Union Hotel, Altoona, Pennsylvania.
