It is with great saddness that the 167th Signal Photo Company reports that our primary veteran contact, Joseph D. Karr, passed away on the 3rd of March, 2011.

"It is because of meeting Joe that we formed the 167th SPC reenactment unit and it is because of Joe's efforts and willingness to help that we now know so much about how these units were organized and what daily life was like for the common military photographer."
Troy LaFaye, 167th SPC CO

"Joe was a trooper and fought the good fight, with camera in hand, until he was honorably relieved from duty by the Supreme Commander over all."
Joshua Olsen, 167th SPC webmaster

"I feel he had a good life from all I've heard, on top of having the satisfaction that the 167th's story is being told by future generations, and he was able to personally witness it." Don Sweet, 167th SPC
