Description

United States Marines. Left to right, Staff Sergeant Michael Mollica, Staff Sergeant Walter L. Czechowshki, and a group of boys who would like to join the Marines. "This picture is a fake. If it hadn't been posed, you couldn't have seen the marine sergeants and potential Leathernecks for the blond, brunets and redheads. As it is, there's Staff Sergeant Michael Mollica (left) and Staff Sergeant Walter L. Czechowski and a bunch of boys who would like to join the Marine Corps. Scene is at the mobile recruiting station which is spending three days in Fort Worth." Staff Sergeants Czeschowski and Mollica are standing in full uniform next to what appears to be a small bus with the text "Fighting Devildogs (Recru)iting Service." A group of young men is gathering eagerly, a couple are looking at the brochures.
