CALS has not had a professional photographer for more than a decade. Thus individuals and units have mainly relied on their own photos for printed documents and websites. To expand your choices, this page lists both free and commercial sites that offer images. Be sure to check the policy on each site regarding the way the images can be used-even if you have purchased them-and how the source of the photos should be acknowledged.
