- General Holland McTyeire "Howlin' Mad" Smith, KCB (1882 – 1967). Holland was a General in the United States Marine Corps during World War II. He is sometimes called the "father" of modern U.S. amphibious warfare.
- General Smith was responsible for organizing and training of our amphibious assault forces that conquered the Pacific theater one island at a time.Some claim that he was as successful in the Pacific theater as Patton was in Europe. In fact he led Marines who took more territory during the course of the war than the troops under Patton did. One of his last campaigns was the battle for Iwo Jima when Smith got up from a sick bed to direct the Marine's attack on the island.
- Smith was one of our greatest warriors and signed photographs or any autograph material of his are extremely scarce. In fact we have never been able to offer a signed photograph similar to this one with Smith in full military dress.
- This offering is a 8 in x 10 in B&W head and shoulders portrat in uniform of General Smith that is signed to Dr. G----- kindest regards HM Smith. General USMC, Ret. in green ink.Good contrast. Photo in exccellent condition.
- The autographs comes with a letter of authenticity as to its origin, history and authenticity.
