Found Photo: U.S. Marines Take a Holiday

The U.S. Marine Corps' PR department issued this press release with photos showing Reconnaissance and Sniper Platoons training in Kuwait. Specifically, they're practicing "special purpose insertion/extraction" where a group of Marines is lashed to a rope, then quickly dropped from a helicopter flying 250 feet above the ground. If you look closely at some of the pictures, however, you can see that several of them are taking a little time out from their busy training schedule to see the sights and snap some holiday photos with their DIGITAL CAMERAS (click on the photo to see it full-size).
