USMCRECON Posted September 21, 2012 Share #1 Posted September 21, 2012 I participated in the annual POW/Mia Recognition Day again this year and took some pictures of the event. Most of them came out a little dark as the event began at 1000 and the sun was still rather low on the horizon and at the back of the ceremony. That meant it was snhining right into the lense of my camera. It also caused some focus problems but it's the best I could do. Here is the pamphlet that was handed out to all the attendees.
