Yes, I can see my Father in that picture with his hands clasped in front and staring at the ground. He had a wife and four kids waiting at home. I was not born until a year later.
I remember my two older Sisters telling how they saw him walking up to the house with two huge teddy bears along with his duffel bag. They still have those stuffed toys. My oldest Brother who was only four just looked up and said “Hi Daddy” and went back to what he was doing. He had not seen Daddy for two years.
According to my Aunt, my two year old Brother had a hard time adjusting to not being Mother’s number one guy.
Was he the one about 2 or 3 from the left? I know you’re proud of him!
