Love the 2nd shot.

The angle/perspective of the first one is neat.

8. I'm with the consensus, my favorite is the 2nd shot.

I like to poke fun at Marines (I'm ex-Navy), but I have great respect for all of them. Thank you for posting these pictures.

9. my late husband

was a U.S. Marine and older than me... my Father was in the Army... when they met (later in life) my dad joked "...you Marines always got the new boots..." and my husband responded "...we just polished our's..."
