Jim Morris Posted February 6 Share #2 Posted February 6 Ha! I clicked on to this forum to post a picture of my late brother-in-law, who served in the International Brigade in Spain. And there he is, giving a talk at Johns Hopkins University! I knew that he occasionally gave talks regarding his experiences during that war, but had no idea that there was a full-length video of one of his talks. Anyway, below is a photograph of Lou marching in a parade in the small town of Poso Blanco, Spain in 1937. Lou told me that he remembered someone taking his photo while he was marching, but never really thought much about it. In 1980, Lou and my sister were in Dublin, Ireland, and went into a bookshop that specialized in history books. Lou found a book about the International Brigade), while he was leafing through the book, he saw the picture of himself marching with the Connolly Column in Poso Blanco.
