The War - Ken Burns Pg. 405

Comments: The picture on page 405 (second from left) in Ken Burns's book The War, An Intimate History 1941-1945, looks like my dad, Julian Poncini. He was a Sgt. with the H&S Bn., 11th Marines on both Peleliu and Okinawa. In Ken Burns's book, the caption says the photo is a Marine unit. I've seen this photo in a different book and the caption states it is an Army unit on Okinawa.

During WWII, the Marines had camouflage helmet covers, in the photo, there are no covers, but there is a rectangular shape on two of the helmets.

Can this be a USMC unit? Are these USMC rain ponchos? Does anyone know what the rectangular shape stands for?

My dad never talked about the war and would not even ride in a Japanese car, up until his death in 1986. He was also called up for the Korean War.

Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

His grandson (if it's the same family) lives in New Orleans, they are all from the Michigan State originally, and his name is mickey kondracki, perhaps he knows something about his grandfather.
