I acquired this real photo post card some years ago and it is one of my favorites. There is no doubt that these two are brothers as the resemblance is quite striking. The sailor brother has a second class rating badge and a radio operator insignia. His bother, whose uniform looks a bit big is wearing a just visible 32nd Division on his hat and on his shoulder Hard to see but with a glass, they are there. He also has a wound stripe on his sleeve. Both seem to have WW1 Victory ribbons.

 

Anyhow, a neat pair of images. The reverse of the card has a Harrisburg Pennsylvania imprint on it which is interesting since the 32nd. drew mostly from Michigan and Wisconsin.
