Some nice WW 11 pictures

They may take a little time to load but worth the wait,,,,,,,, http://pavel-kosenko.livejournal.com/30 ... d=22669914

Came right up theo. Outstanding pix. Crap, we were all so young in our respective wars. Just kids believing in our Great Country & still doing so.

I am stunned by the resolution, I had no idea we were that good photographically 70 years ago. Great content too - we all need something to rally around.

Wow! Great photos.
My great-aunt was a riveter during WWII.

none of the gals has much fat hanging on them

Probably due to a real shortage of Fast Fat I mean Fast Food restaurants.

Dont know much about this but i'am told those pictures were kodachrome 35mm slides transfered to digatal and probaly tweaked some, who ever did them did a good job ! I very much like the picture towards the end of the two men sitting in the yardmasters office with the coal or woodstove. I'am a sucker for those type pictures !!

My bad Franco, Good eye on that buddy!

Thanks for the great pics. of the Greatest Generation.

Different type of people back then, everyone would do whatever had to be done to help in the war effort, Now people wait for someone else to fight for them & call them fools for doing it while at the very same time taking advantage of what those & the ones before them fought for.
