Summary

Description

"Take That: Spent cartridges fly from the rifle of Marine Lance Corporal Joseph L. Atkinson, 19 (Norwood, Pennsylvania) as he shows the superior firepower Marines have during Operation Oklahoma Hills, southwest of Da Nang. So far in the three-week old operation, Leathernecks of the 1st Marine Division have killed numerous enemy soldiers in small unit clashes and uncovered many enemy base camps, several of which would house an entire enemy battalion."
