        GI = Government Issue!! was most commonly known and used

        Here is a link to a prior discussion on it

        Worth of this type of photo depends on who wants it bad enough. usually it would fetch between 50 cents to maybe a dollar. again it depends on who collects them. I have bought photo albums with photos like this but not for the motorcycles but for the knocked out German Armor that was in them.

          the back just has the fellows US address.

          as for the unit I think the QM would stand for quarter master..
