Was able to pluck this off of the 26MEU website.
Everyday, I bet, thousands of friends, loved ones, and of course, family members long to see a picture of their Marine, Navy, Army,Coast Guard, Air Force member on the intenet or one of the many, many other souces of printed or video information.
I got lucky! I know that it's just the back of his head but I'll take it ...any day. Just thought that I would share it.

Great photo Gary. As the Mom of a future Marine I know that any picture, even the back of his head is a treasure.

Ricardo-
The two rifles that are mentioned are the M4 and the M16-A4. Both are referred to as service rifles. There was no mention of Mattel, Tonka, or Toys R Us. LOL.
Check out the MEU website.
Adios....nice to hear from both you and the Phantom.

Awsome pic! Hope he is doing fine along with all of our brothers, sisters and other service members. I see the 26th MEU is still kicking a**!
