I came across this old photo of my ggrandfather (Elmer Clark Walk) in his uniform from the Spanish-American War.

I have no idea what company or anything else except that my ggrandmother received his pension after he died. Elmer had changed the spelling of his last name to Walck but his pension was in the orginal spelling of Walk. He was married to Mabel Florence Wersinger and had 4 children. Howard James, Alice Duretta, Sterling Leroy (died at age 12) and Clarence George Sr. (my grandfather). The sword in his hand was given to the Hazleton VFW at some point in time - I assume it's still there.
