From the photographer:

> Surf rakes arrive at 7:30am…people arrive at 6:30am. And you think getting a little sand on your beach blanket is a big deal???

> Sort of a modern day version of soviet tanks rolling out to defend the city of Odessa.

For some goofy reason, looking at this photo makes me hear the theme song from “[Hogan’s Heroes](http://youtu.be/Uwp%5FCNPYv5g?ref=bklyner.com)” in my head.
