If by "hero photo" you mean your DA photo, then it's in your iPERMS or at DAPMIS (should be in both locations).

You don't get a DA photo until you are a SSG. But when you do have a DA Photo, you can download it from iPERMS.

If by "hero photo" you mean the mugshot they took at BCT or at your unit, I don't have an answer for you. The one at BCT was an outside portrait company, like your high school yearbook, and the one at a unit was just someone with a camera.

possibly that BCT photo was given to the soldiers on a CD (mine was) along with the cycle "year book". Then from there they can do anything they want with it. It's funny to look at. I realize the moment that picture of mine was taken I was thinking FML. It's a much different mind set I had when I took the one I use as my RP profile.

This was about 5 years before the first Sony Mavica with 3.5in floppy hit the market...
