This is a somewhat grainy snapshot of yours truly - as 1st squad leader of 1st Platoon, Charlie Company, 1st Battalion, 5th Marines - navigating somewhere deep in the High Sierras about 22-years-ago. We were just before shipping out to Okinawa.
The Marine Corps Birthday this past Friday (November 10, 2006) followed by Veterans Day on Saturday, spurred me to pull out some old pics.
Semper Fi,

P.S. Oh yeah, check out today's Accuracy in Media.
