764th Chemical Depot Company (Aviation)
The men below are shown in Organizational History Reports as serving with the 764th Chemical Depot Company at some point between its formation in June 1943 and its inactivation in Dec. 1945. The 764th ran a “toxic yard” of mustard-filed bombs on Guadalcanal before moving to Morotai. The 764th was segregated, with white commissioned officers and Black NCOs and other enlisted men. The list of name is far from complete, in large part because the OHRs were poorly microfilmed, making it impossible to read all the names and service numbers.
