MARINE CORPS BASE CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. -- “Tired Eyes,” a portrait sketched by Lance Cpl. Bates, shows a Marine with four tours to Iraq and Afghanistan, Sgt. Wesley Laney, 3rd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division, taking off his helmet after reentering friendly lines at the Jolan Police Station in Fallujah, Iraq.
