Some 75 years ago this week.

17 June 1951. Company M, U.S. 27th Infantry (“Wolfhounds”) Regiment, “Somewhere in Korea.” Note the unit had just earned its third Presidential Unit Citation of the conflict after liberating Seoul (again) just two months before this snapshot.

Official caption: “Typical day of the many soldiers in Korea who observed Father’s Day without ever having seen their offspring are these five men of the 25th U.S. Inf. Div., who get together to compare snaps of their youngsters.”
