| Forest History Society Sample Images: Logging -- Bucking and Limbing -- Crosscut / FHS5250th.jpg |

Image ID: FHS5250
Image Date: 10/29/1942
Image Title: [Bucking.]
Image Caption: A bucker using a hand saw begins the back and shoulder-breaking job of cutting through a huge spruce tree. If he makes three cuts through this big baby in one day, he's a crackerjack lumberjack. Woodmen don't spare the trees in the Pacific Northwest because the U.S. Army needs the spruce to strengthen trainer planes.
