Mid Battleground



My dad sent this picture to me today. It's a photo of my grandfather, John James Wade, from the book "Tarawa: A Legend is Born." He is standing closest to the middle of the photo, pointing out stuff to Shoup who would eventually become Commandant of the Marine Corps. A caption was added by one of my grandfather's buddies. "Captain John J Wade briefs unidentified Marine officer."
