"YI-I-I ! IT'S A BOY!
"Bearing glad tidings of the birth of a son, Chaplain Rickel
delivers a field message to Corporal Edward J. Combs ... The
yound Marine is recovering from injuries suffered on the eastern
front."
Photograph taken by Sgt. Martin Bolhower. Original print bears
no date, but it was filed with illustrations for the August 1952
issue of "All Hands" magazine, and was presumably taken
a few months previously.
Official U.S. Marine Corps Photograph, from the "All
Hands" collection at the Naval Historical Center.
