The soldier was stationed at Presidio of Monterey, Calif., where the couple had their first home together. The other couple are the witnesses, his brother and her sister.

Jim Baker Posted March 5, 2008 Share #15 Posted March 5, 2008 These are so cool. It's kind of sad that so many of these have gotten away from the families. Last November was the first time I had seen a photo of my grandmother as a young girl. She has been dead for years and the photos were in the possession of my now elderly aunt who mailed them to my mother. It was strange as I had only seen her, and remembered her, as an old woman. Keep them coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ww2vault Posted November 5, 2008 Share #16 Posted November 5, 2008 This is indeed a very interesting thread! These wedding/couple photos are really neat. I just acquired my first couples wedding photo today. This belonged to a Hispanic fellow in the Army Ground Forces Reserves named, George C. Romero. He sure found and married a nice lady. - Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
