The United States Navy has several bases in San Diego, and its sailors often exercise by running up and down the three-mile long Mission Beach boardwalk. This group of sailors is shouting a cadence call as they run past us, a study in various stages of exertion. The navy designation “CG 52,” which appears twice in this image, tells us that these sailors are stationed on the cruiser “Bunker Hill.” Navy Blue carries the day here, along with incongruous touches of florescent green on some of the shoes. I also like the incongruity displayed among the subjects -- short and tall, big and small, male and female. Sailors all.
