File:Cabatangan, Shooting Range 04.jpg

• Cabatangan Zamboanga City Philippines

This picture shows the number of children who are watching the practice shooting of the American marines, and how naughty they can be. Here, some of the children have opened the gate and started inside, only to be told off by a woman officer. In the picture she is heading to the gate to close it again, while some of the children are already inside, just behind the tree. In some cases, children are chased throughout the length of the shooting range until the children go up and out. After their practice however, the marines let the children inside to collect the shells for them, and they give the children money (just for those who gets it first, since the marine who gives them holds the money up and counts to three before releasing it to the children) when they return them. They also give the children bottled water. There is a great deal of excitement from the children as the marines' practice is about to end.
