| Description |
English: Pet, pride and mascot of a Marine battalion on Parris Island (S.C.) is "Gismo", baby raccoon, shown here in a family pose with his foster-mother, Nippy, and kit-sister "Gizfoo". A marine drill instructor found the motherless Gismo in the boondocks while his platoon was practicing extended order drill. The mother cat took to the coon as soon as he was put with her, so the three of them live happily together in an orange crate in a battalion mess hall. The mother shows no favoritism at meal time. Corporal Roy Manns, USMC, of Lansing, Mich., arranged the adoption.
Français : Voici « Gismo », l'animal de compagnie, la fierté et la mascotte d'un bataillon de Marines à Parris Island (S.C.), qui est un bébé raton laveur. Il est présenté ici en famille avec sa mère adoptive, Nippy, et sa petite sœur chatte « Gizfoo ». Un instructeur de la marine a trouvé Gismo, orphelin de mère, dans la campagne alors que son peloton s'entraînait à l'exercice. La mère s'est attachée au raton laveur dès qu'il a été placé avec elle, et tous les trois vivent heureux dans une caisse d'oranges, dans le mess du bataillon. La mère ne montre aucun favoritisme à l'heure des repas. Le caporal Roy Manns, USMC, de Lansing (Michigan), a organisé l'adoption.
