Ghosts: Eddie
Paying props to Eddie tonight, one handsome devil of a sailor. I know he was someone special to Mickey (my Mom) – there were quite a few pictures and mentions of him in photo albums and diary entries of the time. I am pretty sure he didn’t survive the war based on what i can piece together. I think this pic comes from 1943. All that was on the back of this small square print was his name. I have a few other prints with him and a few of his pals recorded for posterity. What strikes me about these images and the faces is their youth and pride. You cant help but wonder had he survived, what would have Eddie been doing? Biker? Baker? Billionaire?
