2 03's in the higgins boat.
Also a carbine, might be an engineer or other support type unit.....Frank
What are those rolls several guys are carrying? Ain't issue.
Are they sleeping bags? Are they tents?
I mean the smaller ones in the top pic. I see three of them. They look like pads to sleep on.
Could they possibly be their coats rolled up on top of the pack?
Not those either -- look at the guy right in the center foreground, he has one under his left arm. Two guys 4 and 5 back from him also have them. The guy in the back row who is looking right at the camera also has one slung on his back.
Now I see...they DO look like the thermal rest sleeping pads we now issue in Canada...
That would make the photo relatively modern, wouldn't it? Like maybe post-war Germany? Is Elvis in that column someplace? LOL
