A SEABEE READY FOR ANYTHING During World War II


Another image from the box of Uncle Roy's snapshots.

I know nothing about this shot. A typical vernacular photograph. Okay, not so typical. I believe it's the only one in my collection of a guy chewing on a stogie, with a knife plunged into a table, holding a pistol in one hand and booze in the other. Oh, and also has apparently considerable reading matter displayed on the bench in the foreground. Me thinks these boys were goofin' around. But then I don't know. The story is whatever we make of it.
