    It is a promotional shot for the series "The Pacific".

    Kragluver is correct. It's a photo from the mini-series "The Pacific". The actor on the right with the M1icon Carbine in his right hand is Joseph Mazzello. You all should remember him. He played the little boy in the first Jurassic Park film.
