This is a gem we found on the #AtlanticCity boardwalk, remembering our #KoreanWarVeterans.
Modern day wounded vets….we are very glorified and respected in todays society, and I’m grateful for that…Here’s to our past warriors who may not have had that privilege. May you never be forgotten. ??#KoreanWarMemorial
February 1943. “Daytona Beach, Florida, street scene.” Photo by Gordon Parks for the Office of War Information; Photobomb by Humphrey Bogart.

1865. “Earthwork fortifications and bomb-proofs in front of Petersburg, Va.” Wet plate glass negative, Civil War collection, Library of Congress.
July 11, 1923. “Montrose play grounds (girls with dolls).” By now presumably all safely back in their toy boxes. National Photo glass negative.

January 1943. “Freight operations on the Indiana Harbor Belt railroad between Chicago and Hammond, Indiana.
