At just over 22 years old, I hope Clooney wasn’t bald! Hat? How about that shirt/blouse/jacket thing with the stripes?

I am not certain that the man at left front is Clooney. There’s a good chance … but also conflicting stories. I’m getting some help from our Irish friends, too.

He might as easily be the quartermaster from the 63rd NY named Philip O’Hanlon, or maybe James McCormick, who replaced him as QM after O’Hanlon was discharged about a month after the photo was taken.

I’m going to need a photo of one of these guys from another source, or some other specific evidence, I’m thinking, to get to an ID.
