    A friend just sent me these links to photos in The Altantic and I thought they were incredible. I especially like #13 - keeping a man in his place - and the one of Veronica Lake showing the dangers of beautiful long hair. Hope you enjoy them!

    That is the most amazing collection of WW II photos I have ever seen, mesmerizing really. We are huge history buffs in our home-I will be sure to let my dd know. Thank You so much for posting.
