Throwback Thursday "Uncle Al in Arizona"

My Uncle Al (the handsome guy on the left) and his friend in the US Army in Arizona. My Uncle Al entered the service March 22, 1943 and stayed for 2 years 11 months and 5 days. I know so much detail because I have his Honorable Discharge certificate. I really have some neat items from my family's past, and it's so neat to go through them and admire. He was awarded the Honorable Discharge on February 19, 1946. He was mainly a cook and singer in the Army, and he continued to sing when he came back home. He kept in touch with many of the guys from his Army days, going out to Illinois to visit with them from time to time. I do miss my Uncle Al, he was a great guy, willing to do anything for anyone. I think he would be thrilled to see his photo here on my blog! 

Would be thrilled if you gave me a follow here:
