Wordless Wednesday: For the Archives...MOSTLY Wordless

Again, just for posterity.

Remember our favorite Marine Recruit?  Well, due to the Bloggerfest frivolity at Bear Lake + 4 more days of frolicking with a few friends in Utah + some much needed recovery time from the whole excursion, I didn't get a letter out to him the week before last.  (I know, I'm soooo not in the running for pen-pal of the year this year!)

Therefore, I just had to make up for it with a little something extra.

Here's the inspiration:

George Coghill has got some GREAT Marine illustrations.  I just love them all!

Here's my modified outcome (on the envelope this time, so he's a bit cropped):

I'm swooning over the salute.  That might just be my favorite part!

Thanks for watchin'...
