No Queens in the Marines Young World War II Allied soldiers laid bare From the Michael Stokes Collection, this extraordinary publication reveals a side of World War II never before made public: young Allied troops discharging tension in boisterous, naked play and intimate “buddy” friendships. A remarkable, often tender, lineup of personal photographs and vintage military ephemera, these images offer a whole new perspective on masculinity and the wartime relations between men.
“…an eye-opening photographic record of the emotional and physical bonds between servicemen.” Frontiers Magazine, Los Angeles
