Your caption is incorrect. You have "Earle V. Schneider (child), Earle G. Schneider (child's father), Earle C. Schneider (future submarine commander), and Mrs. Schneider...". The CO's parents are actually standing to his left and right and the child is "Earle V. 'Butch' Schneider" who is the CO's son. The CO's wife is not in the photo. Meanwhile, you're doing a really good job of all this data!
