and arranged that photo himself I’m sure.
I don't know about that, it could have been taken before he washed out. My basic training picture was I think taken in the first couple of weeks in order to end up in the "year book" that was available after graduation.

"...2 stories..." You'd think the author could treat his readers with just a bit more respect when reporting on such an important story. He's not doing himself (or the subject) any favors with an illiterate opening like that.

I'm not sure how The Marine Corps worked it back in the day, but in the USAF, we took pictures in advance of graduation in "prop" uniforms.
Looks like Dan is passing one of those pics off.

Oh yes, what fun those days were! Wouldn’t exchange them for a million bucks but I’d never want to do that ever again.
