USMC Virtual Campaign Library: Dominican Republic 1916 - 1924

[teufelhunde.ret]

In recent months I've been posting photographic holding from the archival files of the USMC History & Museum Division. These consist of period photographs and captions. A most recent folder I've come across represents the Corps campaign in the DR starting in 1916. The pics in this folder are in no particular order, in a indiscriminate order. I am posting in the order found. Pls note, should you desire to use these photos for another purpose, pls give photo credit to theUSMC History & Museum Division.
