That paint scheme is so the Lieutenants and Captains can find their billets.

Sorry let me rephrase that.

The only picture showing is Jack's marker.
I don't see the other picture.

Mike

Mark,

I only see Jack's grave marker.

Mike

His name is Yang Kyoungjong. He is the only known man to have fought in the Imperial Japanese Army, Soviet Army and then the German Wehrmacht. He was captured by the Americans on Utah Beach in June...

Please do.
I think it would be great for everyone to post their family pictures. (with M1s of course) :)

Okay as promised I am uploading the entire company photo.

This is a little off the daily norm but hey it has several Garands in the picture. :)

A little about my Dad. He was working at Aberdeen Proving Group when the war started and had a draft deferral....

Bob,

I joined the 29th ID in 1992 after 4 year of Active Duty Marine Corpse.
I had a number of years doing the normal 1 wekend a month and 2 weeks a year.
Then off to Cuba for a nice all expense...

Here is a bit more information on the Battle of Athens.

The Battle of Athens

Yes, the 2 soldiers on the right are wearing 29th ID patches.

If I see correctly that is an M14.

I thought I would share this one.

Engineers' color guard at Fort Belvoir, Virginia.
March 1943.
Kodachrome transparency,...

The 3rd Marine from the right has a 1903 with Grasping Groove stock. Looks like everyone else has Garands.

So how many South Paw Garand shooters do we have here?
And how many time have you been smacked in the face by the oprod?

Knowing minds want to know. :rofl:

Jim,

I believe you are thinking of saw palmetto.

Mike,

Looks like a Piper Cub in Military Markings.
But I thought the Cub was flown from the rear seat when solo?

JB71,
Absolutely wrong stock.
Picture #9 shows a 03A3 cut for the rear hand guard ring.

JJK,

After looking at the second image further I realized the soldier you identified as Captain Don Johnson is wearing Corporal or Sergent stripes on his right sleeve.

My prayers are added and will ask my Church to add their's tonight.

Dan,

Carbine is on the tire the soldier is resting his foot on.

and I thought my eye's were bad. :rofl:

I was checking out the Library of Congress web site and found some neat images of everyones favorite rifle and thought I would share.

Co. G 102nd U.S.A. New Haven CT in 1917
...

1983 - 1987 in the Airwing.

Then had a 5 year break in service and joined the Army Dogs down the street.

2 trips across the water and one mad wife.

RayG,

Here is the link: http://vishooter.home.att.net/m1903.html

Rick,

I see the one without the "U.S." markings but don't see the one missing the "Remington" marking.

Help Me.:madsmile:

Hope all are doing well and enjoying the new setup.
