My great grandfather collected this image during basic training at the San Diego Recruit Depot in April 1924. The caption reads "Hot ass at marine base!" If you look closely, you'll notice the recruit sprinting with a smile on his face is actually running a gauntlet of his fellow marines who are whipping him with belts as he goes!
This image was one of hundreds in my great grandfather's logalbums, which I inherited as a teenager. I have spent years restoring and researching these images, an endeavor that has evolved into an ongoing book project.
