My dad gave me some military pictures he found and neither one of us knows who they are of. I really don't want to throw them away but is there someone or a program who takes military pictures and recovers who the person is?

Hi, pluckyflamingo!

Are these pictures of just one individual or of groups in the military, please?

Thanks!

After doing some research I found out they were from 1945. The pictures are mostly of one man and a few places he was in (Germany in World War II, Ohio) a few of him he is with friends and then others by himself and a few in the traditional military pose. I found a name of one of the friends in the pictures on the back of one of them. I located his whereabouts and found out he passed away February of this year. But I did get the contact information of his daughter and spoke with her. The information matched up and I mailed her the pictures yesterday.

Hi again, pluckyflamingo!

I'm glad that you solved the problem and that the pictures are now in the possession of a member of his family!

Thanks!
