10 Sept 20 Garand Picture of the Day

[Mark in Rochester]

A Marine Corps war dog rests in the shade of a camouflaged shelter-half hung over a barbed wire entanglement after a hard tour of front line duty at Guam. Marines' steel helmets have been put to many uses but here it makes its bow as a water dish for Laddie. The dog, a Doberman-Pinscher owned by W.A. Schaefer of Greenock, Pennsylvania, is used to locate snipers and to carry messages between scouts and the command post.
