Our new Photo of the Month for 2005 was discovered for us by Mike Flak (STG1 1985-87).
Marine Lance Cpl. Edward Flak of the 1st Battalion 8th Marines from Camp Lejeune saws a bunk bed to pieces to fit it through a window. The Marines were helping Slidell Louisiana Police gut the home of Slidell Police Reserve Lt. Mike Manteris. LCpl Flak had returned, with his Battalion, earlier in the year from a tour in Iraq.
