Wordless Wednesday: Men of the Eastwind #22

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

This is the last in the series.

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.

  1. Like I think I said before, I hope someone does "stumble" on your blog. Such a good reminder too to mark pictures somehow so people know who is in them.
