The first show for the troops after D-Day.

Quote:
"Acrobatic dancer performs for U.S. troops lounging in field at rest camp. Show featured girl dancers, also had two clowns, one of whom had once performed with Ringling Circus in New York. The girls heavily relied on dancing and pantomime because none of them spoke English."
LIFE didn't publish these pictures... wonder why?

Hard to believe it was 70 years ago. I remember when WWII was like a recent memory, but it seems so long ago now.

When I was a kid, hearing about WWII, it was more recent than the Vietnam war is to kids today. Time just keeps marching on.

amen. I don't think we could do it now. They were really our greatest generation. Makes me worry about the future with Russia and Syria continuing aggressions while we seem to be playing the role of Chamberlain. That being said, I'm beginning to wonder why we have to be the world's police? There is no right choice.
