Hello,
I am helping a friend of mine who used a Graflex camera in WW II try and find out information on his camera.
This is the information he gave me: used in late 1944, 2 1/4X3 1/4 film size, it had 2 lenses (standard and telephoto) that were integral with the body, used 120 roll film and you lifted the front of the body up to get the sports finder. Any information that anyone might have would be very much appreciated.

It sounds like an Simmon Bros. Omega Combat camera.
