Jim Hennessey's Scrapbook From WWII

By Jim Hennessey
E-345


From: The Golden Acorn News, March 1998

Jim Hennessey, E-345, has compiled quite a scrapbook with pictures from WWII. These images have appeared in other publications but still serve to remind us of what it was like in those cold dark days of our youth. Jim acquired these from the Signal Corps Photo Center in Long Island City, New York, now known as Kaufman Studios, where many television programs are recorded.
