John Harold Lightsey

While cleaning out a storage area at my home I found boxes of old photos from my parents.  One of the photos is a 8 x 20 of Company G 322nd.  I have looked closely at the photograph and I believe that Captain John Harold Lightsey is in this photo.  The man I think is Captain Lightsey very closely resembles the picture of him on the web site in his uniform.  My father, Tate Stewart, was in this group.  I remember seeing this picture when I was a child and my father told me that everyone in the picture except 1-2 dozen men were killed in action.  The other 1-2 dozen men were transferred to Alaska/Canada to participate in a joint American-Canadian exercises preparing for a mission into Germany.  I have several photos of my father in Alaska and Canada during the exercises.  I remember him becoming part of the paratroopers and trained at Fort Benning Georgia too.  This photo may have been taken while stationed in Michigan.  My father died in 1994 so I cannot be 100% sure if what I remember from 50 years ago is correct.  I have attached a close-up of the picture.  In the picture 1st from the left on the 2nd row is who I believe to be Captain Lightsey.  My father, Tate Stewart, is sitting in front, first on the right.
