Famous WW2 Quote
"Since peace is now beyond hope, we can but fight to the end."Chiang Kaishek, 31 Jul 1937

POSE FOR THE CAMERS IN COMBAT THIS IS WHAT NOT TO DO:
Its not a good idea to have light on your position, thats really exposing yourself, to enemy fire. That M1917 helmet has to go, it gives no protection at all.
Another GI, should be manning that Browning M1917,.30 caliber machine gun providing fire as our GIs move out of the ambush area.
