A Soldier gets married. This was most likely after the war, I say that because most brides didn’t wear fancy white dresses during the war.  This bride wore a fingertip veil and her wedding frock had a train that she has gathered up in her hand.

It wasn’t a summer wedding.  It looks like early spring to me..March or April.  I hope they were a happy couple and were married a really long time.

This is the continuation of WWII era photos.  These are all taken in the United States.

A Soldier returns home to family.  There are many photos with different people..I chose this one because it shows a rural area.

 

The Soldier has a gal.

The photos were developed on Velox paper.  None of them are marked with a name or a date.

I think this Soldier may be the same soldier that we have seen several times..the one named “Gene”. What do you think?

These are the last of the WWII photos that are marked with names that were taken in the hospital/clinic setting.

And here is one last photo of Gene.

Tomorrow we will follow a soldier home.  I think it is Gene..but none of the next photos are marked with names..some are marked with a developing date..1946.

Photo Number 703

This is a WWII  group.

Sumners ( Summers ??) Minn.
Gene Mpls
Townson ( Tounson ??) Oklahoma
Pischke  Chicago

I still believe that these were Gene’s photos or someone close to him.  We don’t have a last name for Gene…but I bet his sister or his wife was named Margaret whose last name was Lundborg..but that could be her married name not her maiden name.

Update:


 From Iggy
Margaret Elizabeth Larson nee Lundborg (b. July 4, 1915 in Allegheny, Pennsylvania d. April 30, 2010 at age of 94 in Brainerd, Crow Wing, MN) She was the daughter of Samuel (b. 1870 in Sweden d. Dec. 2 1942) and Selma Lundborg (b. 1876 in Sweden)


I found this Obituary for a Margaret Lundborg. 
Margaret Elizabeth Larson, 94, of Brainerd, died Friday, April 30, 2010, at Harmony House.

Services for Margaret will be 11 a.m., Friday, May 7, at Lutheran Church of the Cross in Nisswa. Interment will be at Evergreen Cemetery in Brainerd.

Margaret was born July 4, 1915, in Pittsburgh, Pa. Early in her life, Margaret moved with her family to the Brainerd lakes area. She was united in marriage to Harry Larson. Harry died in 1962. Margaret owned and operated Lundberg Jewelry in Brainerd for many years. She was a member of Lutheran Church of the Cross, Zonta, Eastern Star, and a 50-year member of the American Legion Auxiliary. She enjoyed the outdoors.

Margaret will be missed by her cousin, Ruth Maples, of Brainerd; and several nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Harry and her parents.

WW2 era photo.

This is “Red” and the photo was developed on August 31, 1945.

Photo Number 700

Another WW2 era photo.

This one is marked “Lars” Larson Mpls ( Minneapolis MN)

It was developed on September 5 1945.  The photos could have been taken anytime or anyplace prior to that date.

I have finally decided that the photo processing center was called Illini Quality Service.  The words form a triangle and there is a photo of an Indian Chief in the center.  Chief Illini was the official symbol of the University Of Illinois at Champaign Urbana.  Chanute Base is nearby..I only know it as an Air Force Base..but it could have been Army/Air Corps Base back then.
