A good looking couple.
The young lady is holding a white box of some sort, her handbag is under her arm and her fur coat is over her arm. She is ready to go someplace.
Thanks for stopping by, do come again:)
A happy woman with a proud, probably higher-ranking officer. War time pictures can speak so much, filled with such contradictions of what happens on and off the field of battle.
Aren't they a dashing looking couple. Doesn't that beat the jeans and t-shirts of today? I like the more formal attire of yesterday. Even from my yesterday.
I thought I had replied to this yesterday. My guess is the box is a corsage box. My dad used to bring home a corsage for my mom the day of a big convention dinner. Gardenias usually.
Scenes like these were common during the war. Not so common nowadays.

ReplyDeleteIt's a shame he isn't turned a tad more so we could see his rank insignia. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad wearing jacket and tie went out of "daily" fashion - but the slummy look is taking casual too far!
