A Moment Frozen in Time: A Soldier and a Woman in a Park in 1943

We’re sharing a ton of great old photos this week and this is a great moment, frozen in time from 1943.

It’s a shot of a soldier, sitting near a woman posing for a photograph. If you look closer at the man, it appears that he’s eyeing the woman.

1943. On maneuvers in wartime Washington. "A soldier and a woman in a park, with the Old [Russell] Senate Office Building behind them." 4x5 Kodachrome transparency, photographer unknown. Office of War Information.
