    My latest find. A Post WWI era US Marine Corps RPPC. I believe this to be POST WWI, because this enlisted Marine is wearing the "E.G.A." collar brass insignia, and those did not come into service until 1919. Also strange is the leather garrison belt he is wearing instead of the standard issue cartridge belt.
    Early Marine Corps images are very hard to find. I now add this to my collection of "GREAT FINDS"......

    Enjoy!
