FAMILY FRIEND IN USN 1940s

BILL MOORE, A WORLD WAR TWO VET I KNEW WHEN I WAS GROWING UP. THE SON OF SOME NEIGHBORS, BILL DRIFTED INTO TOWN AND OUT OF TOWN, A MAN WITH HIS OWN PLANS FOR LIFE, ALWAYS DREAMING OF THE FUTURE. I HOPE HE IS ALIVE AND WELL TODAY WHEREVER HE MIGHT BE ENJOYING HIS FUTURE...This is one of the photos taken in Navy towns with the backdrops. They were popular and usually next to the tattoo parlor and the beer joints. One could get photographed, tattooed and drunk within a short time. That's what Bill told me. I found out later that Bill was right, but I opted out on the tattoo thing.
