This is the second
webpage of photographs
from the collection of Private
First Class William Edward
Plocharski (later William Planter) of the US
Marine Corps, who took these
photos during his deployment in
Las Segovias, Nicaragua, over a
period of two years, from
January 1928 to December 1929.
The larger
photos were scanned in
high resolution (600 dpi). The smaller
photos (of individual pages of the photo
album) were taken at lower resolution but show
the captions, and for that
reason are included here.
For a full high-resolution image
of each photo, click on
the thumbnail image on the
right-hand side of each Photo ID banner.
This collection has never been
published anywhere else.
I first learned of it in January
2018 thanks to the kind courtesy
of Private Plocharski's (Mr.
Planter's) daughter, Patricia
Barrow of Houston, Texas. I
thank Patricia Barrow and her
family for their generosity in
making these photographs
available and permitting their
publication here.
