Semper Fi.....

Dear Col. Yarborough,
It was wonderful talking with you earlier today.  I have reviewed the album through this slideshow covering the 1st LEB Marines adoption ceremony in Lake Forest you posted on your site.  Thank you so much for sharing this album with us so we could see this great event.

Looks like a nice event, great job on the images!

On behalf of myself, the LF USMC Support Committee, the families of Lake Forest (Mommies & Daddies).....and of course, our adopted Marines of 1LEB (Kids).....THANK YOU Col Yarborough for this wonderful collection of pictures!

Good photo's, being viewed in Australia.

Always enjoy hearing from Aussie's Garry.  Don't know any place in the world more friendly to Marines.  BB

A night in the Brig!!!  Why am I not surprised?   Doug

You'll be a busy bee in May - look forward to your new album from Camp Pendleton.  You were just a kid in 1945 and your night in the brig in China sounds like the night Dale got caught in the Girl's Dorm trying to sneak another guys girl in after hours at his Kutztown University College Sophomore year. He remembers the letter from the College to his parents.!!!!  As said before, this Mary Jane wants to be a photographer like you when she grows up!!!  Good Job BB - Love to you and yours - Dale and MJ

BB, you are too much!!  Hope you and your bride are well.

Regards,

Mike

Another fine photographic job, Colonel.  Keep up the good work. First time I ever saw a complete Battalion in Dress Blue trousers and summer service shirts.    Most of the guys in my outfit didn't even own a set of Dress Blues and the only time we ever wore them was on 10 November. But---things change.

Great photos! Thanks for documenting these important events!

Excellent album, BB, Thank You!
