Unknown Photos

These are pictures I feel are part of the 461st, but have been unable to identify completely.  I have posted as much information as I have for each of these pictures, but would appreciate it if someone could help me place the pictures where they should be.  If you can supply any information at all, please write me at Webmaster.  Click on each picture for a larger view and then use your back button to return here.  Thanks.

Coles, Dusenbury, Pruit and DeWitte
I've been told that four of these men are Coles, Dusenbury, Pruit and DeWitte. Who is the fifth man and what order are they?  I've been told the first man on the left is Marion Pruitt.

Photo move to Torretta page. Foggia or Bari
At first glance this appears to be Torretta Field, but it doesn't match the other photos I have of Torretta Field. Might it be Foggia or Bari?
Headquarters enlisted men
There are enlisted men in this photo. Perhaps late 1944? Headquarters enlisted men?
