I really, really like seeing collections of historical photos; thank you for posting the link to this collection.

One wonders how many of those gentlemen survived the invasion.

Our world would not exist without these guys and their sacrifices.

Lost the last one three years ago, "Cousin Bill", of many uncles and cousins who fought in WWII.

Too many today don't begin to understand their sacrifices and accomplishments.

One of the things Roy brought home from his grandmother's attic after she died was a framed WWI recruiting poster. I've never been able to find it on online sites devoted to such memorabilia and wish I knew more about it.

If your library has a good collection of price guides, start there.
