Look at the far right of the bottom photo. There are Navy sailors with either 1903 or M17 rifles. Also, a rare view of FDR without a wheelchair near by. However he is being supported by the Navy officer. Is the Black Jack Pershing on FDR's right???
I was thinking about he Jarheads in the hounor guard. By the next year most of them were probbably casualties...
Black Jack? You think so Bill? I've never seen him.
Is the Black Jack Pershing on FDR's right???
