| All photos on this page have been thumb nailed to conserve space. Just click on the image to see the full size images. Also, all the black and white photos here were taken with period photography equipment and black and white film. The only computer usage on them was to adjust their sizes for best viewing. Due to the volume of pictures taken at the Fort Indiantown Gap Battle of the Bulge event, I have st up a separate page for those images. You can get there by clicking here. Above is a photo of part of our unit at an Operation Market Garden tactical event. Notice everyone has congregated along a roadside ditch where they can quickly take cover in the event of an enemy attack. A photo from the 50th Anniversary of D-Day event. Our 1st Sergeant on the left and CO Capt. Sollitto 3rd from right. Airborne Padre Steve DelSignore holds a brief service for us prior to going to the field at the Ft. Indiantown Gap Battle of the Bulge event, January 2002. Another view of the service the Padre was leading. The ground was hard and rock strewn, and the service short, but worth every minute. War trophy from FIG 2002. This was the end of the day. We had just finished pushing through heavy frontal resistance by the German SS company only to find it was a thin line of determined soldiers, who had no support. Thanks to Colin McCourt for the picture. A shot from FIG in the mid 90s. The webmaster wasn't there, but it would appear another victory was being celebrated. Capt. Sollitto (L) and Top (R) inspect a parachute pack tray prior to rigging the chute. Top hold the risers in his hands. Company support weapons (organic) going to work during training time. Close up of the Bazooka shown in the background of the previous photo. Our .30 machine gun set up in a dug in position. A photo of a couple of our guys showing pre-D-Day rigging of equipment. Note the cardboard "71" indicating the stick number (also chalked on the side of the aircraft).
