So cool! My mom has pictures of my Grandfather when he served in the Army during WWII. He too suffered from dementia (and eventually passed on)so he could not remember any of the events and there was no writing on them.Would love to do some lo with those photos. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thank you everyone! If any of you have any ideas, know of websites etc where we might find out more about this picture, please PM me, I would be so grateful. Dh's father was killed in 1950 during the Korean War so we have no history from him and his mother suffers from dementia and remembers nothing. Its really very sad.
What an awesome pic!! I love the colors and the vintage touch! What a beautiful layout! Just a side note, you might be able to find out the history behind the photo if you did some digging. There are so many websites available now for tracking stuff like that.
Since I'm ensconced in tracking and documenting our family military history, I love to see vintage military pages. Please add Military to the theme so other's don't miss this great LO!
Wow I am sure it was a high honor for Eisenhower to present the award!!! Possibly you could Google your dh's dad name and metals and Eisenhower and find out more info...love the lo and design prefect for this great and historical photo!!!!
I love this Prima collection and it is really perfect for vintage styling. But be sure to check out the Prima thread at the Flying Unicorn, its really amazing what some of the CT has done with Engraver. I chose a more traditional route as I really wanted to play up the masculine vintageness of this.
The pilot on the left is dh's Dad in WWII. This photo was taken in England, General Eisenhower is in the middle and the other two gentlemen are high ranking British commanders. Its is very unfortunate that we do not know the circumstances of this photo, I suspect that dh's Dad was receiving an award of some sort.
Please see my blog for details and closeups. http://scraptravelbark.blogspot.com/2013/03/prima-engraver-at-flying-unicorn-now.html
