3 June 2025 Garand Picture of the Day
He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose
There are no great men, only great challenges that ordinary men are forced by circumstances to meet.

I'm interested to know if the picture is a Marine from late WW2, or Korean war. Its most probable the later, but could be the end of the war. The thick base M2 flash hider and leather cheekpiece provide evidence of a scoped Garand. The handset looks like one of the ww2 Navy style push-to-talk styles which remained in use through Korea.

It's Korea, you just look these up and it's clear.
