Proud of these men

While there are many sins in my country's past, I am still proud of somethings. My grandfather served in WWII (this is not him) and over this holiday weekend I'm thinking of him and the many other brave men and women who served and helped stop a tyrant.

I wish more would stand up now.

This guy was a U.S. Marine during the time he posed for these photos, apparently he was EASing. The magazine itself is very rare, and has full nudity.

New York, 1917. Examining a potential sailor aboard the "landship" Recruit.

The examination is taking place aboard the USS Recruit, nicknamed the “landship” Recruit.

The Recruit was not a real, seaworthy ship. It was a full-size wooden model of a battleship built in Manhattan’s Union Square during World War I. The Navy used it as a recruiting station, training facility, and public exhibit. It was officially operated much like a commissioned Navy ship, even though it never touched the water.
