Marion:- Remember you asked for more!!
Here's 3 very tired,very old,very war weary 19 year old kids after 3 months combat (Me on right. Would give much if the other two were here to see the photo BUT.....)
P.S. Tell Pfc. Fournier to "Blouse his pants in the boots". What is he a Zoot-Suiter with the cuff on his pants??

Hey Joe, kinda looks like Italy also. That a tommy gun you got? Scout huh !! Makes no never mind what Sgtleo says about your pants. Lotsa mud huh. Roque

Roque:-
I was yanking Joe's chain but seriously we found that if you "Bloused your Pants" it kept a lot of the mud out. If it was less than 4 inches deep it wasn't too bad.
God!! how I hated the feel of mud in my boots when I had to Double Time or for that matter even walk - Yuck.
