Matt-M Posted May 12, 2020 Share #428 Posted May 12, 2020 Wonderfully done. The energy of your hand is captured in every piece, yet every piece is done slightly differently. Capturing "weight" of an object is not easy, more often than not, subjects tend to have a "floating" or "rigid" stance. Not in your case. Again, well done. You should spend a little time to archive these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvage Sailor Posted May 16, 2020 Share #431 Posted May 16, 2020 Outstanding restoration of the photo of Dennis Rooster, Thanks for posting this. For folks just tuning in to this topic, this is a self portrait of the Combat Photographer who shot all of these fantastic photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The photo was shot by a kid named Osborn, a Combat Photographer from 9th Sig, who provided the official Combat Photogs for the Division. He was killed a few days later w/ Charlie Co, 2/39th. All I was ever able to get ahold of were the contact strips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picked it up at the PX. It was the only thing I could afford. Until I joined the CAT, I'd never seen a 35mm camera in my life. They wanted someone willing to go to the field and shoot pictures and I told them I'd been the photographer for my school newspaper...which was true, I just didn't mention I'd only used a Polaroid and we'd only started using pictures in my senior year. I probably shot about 5000 rolls of film and maybe 40 were usable. :^ D It was a great little camera though. Very tough. Went through all kinds of Delta conditions, numerous dunkings, monsoon rains, other stuff. Sadly, a couple of days before I left country somebody swiped it...

I have a positive ID on this vessel now and as I suspected, it's my ship... USS GRASP (ARS-24) She moored to the shore at Wunder Beach and Chu Lai on multiple occasions to repair underwater seaload fuel lines in July and August 1968. There ya go...
