Made on Tybee Island - Savannah, Ga. in 1925

According to newspaper article, this was the Jackson Rifles,
Company A. 121st Infantry, Georgia National Guard which went
every year to Tybee Island and also St. Simons Island, GA.  
I think there were lots of activity there on Tybee during
WWII and possibly WWI.  I believe at one time there was a
Military installation there, but dont know which war (WWl or
WW2) This photo shows tents and really terrible looking
landscape.  My father told me he went to Tybee Island twice
and to St. Simons Island, Ga once.  St. Simons Island is
east of Brunswick, now accessible by a causeway.  Also in
this area is Sea Island, Little St. Simons Island, Sapalo
Island, Cumberland Island, Jekyll Island  and many other
small ones.
