In the first pic he has bass, crappie and a grinnell. That man was out to feed his family. Awesome pics.

Great to see old pictures like that. Wonder what he caught them with, cane pole, trot line?

I believe the man in the center of the pic is a distant cousin or uncle on my fathers, father side. Supposedly the man to the soldiers left shoulder @ 2 o'clock is my grandfather, Jack E. Looks like a very young Jack. Some of the others or all of them were brothers/relatives. Picture dated on back at 1917 or 1918.

Car looks like a 57 Belair
The motorcycle is a late 40's/early 50's Harley. Cool old steel right there. Great pics.

Guys like this ended up being Buddies for life. Sapper, you have your battle buddies now, years from now you can look back at the pictures and they will be just like your grandfathers. The cycle will continue.
