Wordless Wednesday: Men of the Eastwind #19

Wordless Wednesday is a daily prompt at Geneabloggers that asks family historians to create a post in which the main focus is a photograph or image.

Unknown sailor on USCGC Eastwind 1946 or 47  http://jollettetc.blogspot.com

When my dad was stationed aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Eastwind in 1946-47, he took pictures of his shipmates during tours to Thule, Greenland but didn’t provide names.  Maybe the family of these sailors will find my blog and share their story.

  2. Have you had any inquires about the pictures in this series? That looks like an ice berg in the back ground. Good think this guy has on a hat that covers his ears. What a duty station to have.
