Fall Festival Hungarian Dance, circa 1944

Every fall in Cleveland, Ohio, there would be a harvest festival sponsored by a Catholic Church.  The hall would be decorated with grapes and other fruits and vegetables.  For several weeks beforehand we had to learn the steps to two or three dances that would be performed on festival day. My mother made my costume - we rented my brother's costume. That's me in the top row, third from the left.  My brother is the boy at the end of the second row on the right. View full size.

Class Photo

I am not sure where this photo was taken or when, there was no information upon the photo. I wish I knew the story....I figure it was a school photo it is just an amazement to look at this and imagine the lifestyle... No smiles either...

In Front of the Half Moon Inn 1943

This is a photograph of me in front of my grandfather's bar, the Half Moon Inn. It was located on White Plains Road between Maran Place and Lydig Avenue, Bronx, NY. The bars are holding up a canopy in front of the Half Moon Inn. The camera is facing north, and the elevated railroad, on the left, runs above White Plains Road.

Dad’s Anti-Aircraft Group

Anti Aircraft Group in England as they were preparing to go into Normandy, France, around May 1944. My dad, John Frank Hines (far left), was with the 601st Anti-Aircraft Artillery Battalion. The unit entered Normandy on D-Day plus 10 and ended up in Antwerp, Belgium, shooting down V-1's (buzzbombs). Dad was a PFC and earned four bronze stars. I wish I knew the other men in the picture.
