<r>You are correct he's the one on the right in that photo. His name is Fred G. Yerkes. I have relatively strong circumstantial evidence he may have been involved in running guns to Cuba. I was going through a box of old photos while my father was still living and discovered an albumen of the Commod...

<r>A few early National Match pieces and photos. If you look carefully at the undated photo you will see a Krag receiver.
