Summary[edit]

Description

"We mean the puppies of course! These four Marines have taken over the job of being foster mother to the pups, after their real mother left behind by the Japanese, gave birth to a litter of 13 and couldn't take care of all of them. The Marines are, form left to right, 2nd Lt. G.H. Hoffman Jr., Corporal Louis R. Bonini, Corporal Edward J. Frankenbech, and Master Sergeant Harold "Porky" May. Their recipe for raising good, healthy puppies --plenty of C rations. All four Marines and puppies were attached to an aviation group with 4th Marine Air Wing."
