They were responsible for intercepting, analyzing, and decoding enemy communications. Jim's photos span the period of 1944-1945. All photos appear to have been taken by him or his friends, and very well could be one of a kind images. Some have stamps on their backs showing they were cleared by military censors, and others appear to have been developed in the U.S. after the war. Type & Size: A 3.5x5 original photograph. Condition: Good to fair condition. Some of these images have dented edges or missing corners from age and their prior life in a 1940s scrapbook. Please see photos. A captivating photo from February 22, 1946, features a young woman, possibly named Bettie, posing outdoors near a water body. She is seated on a rocky surface, dressed in a stylish white blouse paired with dark trousers and accessories, showcasing a joyful demeanor with a smile. The background hints at a serene landscape, likely in a recreational area, embodying the essence of post-war American life. This period following World War II was marked by significant social change and a return to normalcy for many. With soldiers returning home, photographs like this became treasured keepsakes, often capturing moments of happiness and camaraderie. The name "Sharon Woods" may indicate the location where the photo was taken, possibly a park or a natural retreat popular among families and friends during this time.
