Looks like it belonged to Percy L. Thornton in Portland Oregon as his name and address is inside
There are multiple signatures. I expect they did that during the reunion. I took pictures close-up in case you are looking for someone in particular. I will be happy to get back to you if you need a name checked.
Battery "C" had men from Wyoming, Colorado and North Carolina
They participated in the Battle of Chateau-Thierry, Champagne-Marne Defensive, Aisne-Marne Offensive, St Mihiel Offensive, Meuse-Argonne Offensive firing a total of 67,590 rounds of ammunition (Wikipedia).
