JLENG Posted May 8, 2012 Share #1 Posted May 8, 2012 Picked this up at the Mpls Military show a couple of weeks ago. The band stands are labled NAS (possibly Naval Air Station). The photo really shows the racial divide during WWII. All the band members are black sailors and everyone else is white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunkerhillburning Posted May 8, 2012 Share #2 Posted May 8, 2012 Thats a nice shot. Could you figure a location? One wonders where those band members ended up after the war and with whom they played. Probably some real talent in the group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KEF Posted May 8, 2012 Share #3 Posted May 8, 2012 I'd love to have this great photo for my collection on WAR BOND items. It shows American involvement in the WAR LOAN DRIVES across many cultural and ethnic backgrounds. Buying War Bonds "united" all Americans against a common enemy.
