So under the USMC in the Pacific, is there an unit list for the Seabees? Also are there any castings available. They were at many actions during the campaigns. |

Didn't they wear marine fatigues? I may be misremembering, but I thought someone made a John Wayne figure from "The Fighting Seebees." |

I know they did one of the Duke in "Sands Of Iwo Jima" |

That's probably what I'm thinking of. It would still work. |

My wife's uncle was in the Seabees in the Philippines. I have a large collection of photos from him. Jon Wayne was a civilian contractor at the beginning of one movie and I think it was about the Seabees. |

And they used similar filmed training footage montaged in both pics to pad the film. |
