Description
Pre-WWII deployment image of military personnel. Many Latino men and one Latina female are in military uniform. Presumably a majority of which are Mexican American, standing and kneeling. Some posing with weaponry. The military personnel range from Navy sailors, both enlisted and officers, along with other branches of the military (possibly Army, Airforce, and Marine Corp). A few individuals are in suits, and other styles of clothing typically associated with masculinity or the U.S. military. The background building is of St. Francis de Assisi Catholic Church. The calendar text reads "Riverside County Mexican American Historical Society, 2008 Calendar, "Sharing Our History" Riverside, California."
