From this Marine to your Dad;
Have a great Veterans Day and thank you for serving the Navy AND the Army.

Very nice stuff.
I am a still writing and shooting USMC combat photog assigned to Leatherneck Magazine back in mid 1950's who covered Jarheads in the Mid East at that time.
Still working as Senior Writer/Photographer for newspaper I founded 14 years ago and have just published a book on some of my past columns.
Best to you and thanks for your continued service of bringing good work forward for the world to see. Your BW images are excellent.
I am presently working on a book of my adventures with the Marine Corps.
My best and Semper Fi to you, Brother.

Of course, life long photojournalists and Marine Corps combat photographers aware not at the ready, nor was their gear anywhere close, when the twins walked through, stopped, looked around, then continued on their way.
They were young and handsome.
Sadly, no photos.
We live in northern NH and see bobcats come through our woods property from time to time. They are handsome and always on the hunt. One day we saw twin bobcats.
You shot very nice pix and we appreciate
Just how technically good they are.
From a Massachusetts Marine, absolutely beautiful stuff you did on the Common. Thank you. Living in New Hampshire now so did not see this superb Memorial display.
We live a bit to the south of Mount Washington in Piermont, New Hampshire and have done the Cog Railway a few times. Each trip is a different photo experience. You showed the trip highlights very nicely. Hope you enjoyed the trip and please return again and shoot more great pix!!

Beautiful shot! I do believe you found him singing "Anchors Aweigh" ( A retired sailor of 22.5 years).
I did not see any bell bottoms on that bird!
Very nicely done. Both the images and text. Thank you.
Best to my veteran brothers and sisters. Thanks for your service and dedication.

Semper Fi and thanks for the comments for our USMC birthday and Veterans Day.
Great for your wife to understand how you feel about the M1. I am always looking but the prices are really high.

I like the various names given us since the Corps was founded in 1775. Your list is interesting. I have quite a few more that are interesting, but insulting or dirty and not fit for this superb forum.

Same to you, brothers and sisters.
Will you ever publish a book of your series? Very well done and something the public needs to see and read from your hand and eye
