You sure they're USMC? Look like soldiers to me but I could be wrong.
No carbine showing either, what's with that Frank? Might want to mosey that over to the Garand forum. :lol:
At Normandy, the US soldiers ran into groups of former Russian POWs who were offered freedom if they fought for the Germans. The alternative was death by starvation in a camp. These reluctant fighters gave up at the drop of a hat and I don't blame them. Considering the smile and general lack of fear in these guys faces, these might be some of those men. Notice as well; everybody has already stripped off their web gear, belts and not a weapon in sight. Considering that a lot of prisoners were shot dead out of hand simply by being captured by someone who was ****ed off or hated SS, these guys are pretty lucky.
Frank,
Yes, I can do that. The reason for adding an emoticons is to show it in a light or laughing manner. No implication it was not appropriate material. Just making fun of a Garand picture on the Carbine forum. I'm sorry if you took it the wrong way.
