A New York Navyman and an NYU student were happy to oblige The Post’s request to recreate the famed 1945 V-J Day photo from Times Square, during a Fleet Week bash.
Brandon O’Connell, a sailor stationed at Chambers Street, showed up ready to mingle at the Fleet Week Open Bar Singles Party Friday night to meet “somebody that would like to have fun.” Early on in the evening, the Rochester native was hitting it off with Evangeline Lim, a master’s student at NYU, who told The Post he was “nice and cute.”

What is “Cherry Jubilee”?
Ummm....
To put it bluntly...
It's the legendary title of the extreme close-up pictures presented in the slide show they display to recruits at boot camp.
Extreme close-up pictures of various disgusting and bloody effects of STDs. Meant to scare us into NOT touching the strange stuff that's waiting out there.

I was West Coast. Married right after boot camp. Serious about my vows.
The demon I was married to back then sure wasn’t, though.
(I shoulda listened to Sam Kinison’s advice more)

Sigh. These were the blues for enlisted at that time but oddly, I cannot find any equivalent images of the summer whites, which we called the Ice cream uniform:
The whites had the white short sleeved shirt, white straight trousers and the hat shown above, so it wasn't bad looking. Just uninspiring. No jauntiness.

I think someone should let the woman know that her date isn’t an American serviceman. Looks like she is looking for a husband, but is getting close to her "best used before" date.

the one i heard was like the following:
an airplane with just two Brazilian people on board went down- and when they told President Bush “A plane with 2 Brazilian people onboard went down” he frowned in concern and said “My goodness that is a lot of people”

At 35, she doesn't have many years of child bearing left.... Are you sure she doesn't already have kids?
At 35, it's called a "geriatric pregnancy." Especially rough for first-time mothers.

Are you sure she doesn't already have kids? Of course not. Not enough information.

My kids were born when my wife was 35, 37, and 38. Yup, we had 3 kids in 3 years. She was 4 years older than me, but I’m now older than she was when she died in 2019.

I wore those blues for awhile until the new SECNAV switched E-6 and below back to Crackers. I don't remember double breasted whites. I only remember the white shirt, trousers, and combination cap. I was peeved having to buy new uniforms and didn't really care for Cracker blues nor Cracker dress whites.
I never got why women were so attracted to a uniform with a cup as the cover, a flap on the back, and the goofy tie.
