NOW IT'S CAPTAIN BOBBY JONES TO YOU. This original 1942 photograph depicts Bobby Jones after he received his military uniform when enlisting during World War II. Bobby Jones did not like to talk about his military experience once he returned from the war, so many golf fans are surprised to learn that Bobby Jones landed in Normandy under heavy enemy fire the day after D-Day (known as D-Day +1). 8x10
