I did not take many photos as I was marching for the first time, I had always been working as a photographer before.






This was the Officer and Gentleman I got to march behind.

hmmm, thought provoking and makes me wonder .... do you have to get a permit to carry a rifle in the parade?

These are very emotional and powerful images, particlularly the nurse (this one seems a bit soft?) and the proud young man marching with his rifle. The image of the young man dressed like that with the expression is a very engaging image...

Would love to see the last couple in B&W...

the nurse photo is a bit soft she was marching in one direction I was heading in the other it was just a grab shot as we passed at f2.8.

I still don't mind the shot I may try to sepia it but my PS skills are very limited

I find the young man sad and frightening as many of our soldiers in past wars have been around his age.

I always recall my older relatives singing a simple song

"Cheer up sonny you'll soon be dead, it's a short life but a gay one"

there were more verses but I was too young to hear them.

They sang this in the trenches to cheer up the young kids who were frightened or homesick. Very black humor.
