Here are some pics of one of the 1903A3s that I described in a post last week. These are at US Army Kwajalein Atoll. Kwaj is 2200 miles southwest of Hawaii.
I'm here doing some archaeological monitoring. The project came to a halt three days ago when we ran into a multiple Japanese burial. At least four bodies. These guys are in the same foxhole they defended and died in. Most lilely just covered up by soldiers of the 7th Inf Div after the battle. They were all entagled in death, so now have left a jumble of bones. Quite an archaeological mess. We hope to finish today and close the hole. Construction will move else where to prevent further disturbance.Information
