This picture appeared in my home town morning paper today. I couldn't help noticing the rifle wa an M1903. Just a local guy getting in some hunting wherever he could during the war.

The terrain looks very rough. Nice rifle though.

Hunting in 1944 in Sardinia? Oh, my!

There's a whole lot of 'up there' in Sardinia. Looks like an air crew jacket he's wearing.

Having time to hunt in 1944 also leads me to believe this fellow might have been in the air corp. Somewhere, I have some pictures of my Uncle Ed Sullivan wearing a similar jacket. He served in the air corp in Italy during WW2

In many respects the Italian and Korean campaigns were similar. Only two directions, uphill and downhill.
