I was going through some old family photos today and came upon a couple that I thought might be of interest.

In this old school photo my dad is in the back row, directly in front of the teachers left shoulder. He was a youngster when the 2nd World War was happening.

Notice the girl in the row just below him! She made me laugh when I zoomed in. After all the work her mom went to getting her all spiffy for the class photo! I hope she made her family laugh when they saw this!

And then there is this boy in the front row with the scowl on his face! I wonder how many of these kids had fathers who were away in the military?

I thought it was interesting to see them all dressed up in their finest for picture day!

My dad is standing in this next photo, the first on the left. It is fun to see the classroom decorated for Christmas. I guess if your family was not Christian you were just expected to play along!

And a couple of carefree after school photos.
