Yes, these are great photos. Seems like with WWII you see a lot of the same photos over and over despite the volume of photos shot in the war. It's always good to see private photos because a) by their nature, haven't been seen by many and b) usually they are taken of things that may have seen "mundane" by the people who put together "Photos of World War II!!" books. It adds a visual dimension to the war you would otherwise not have.

These are great! If you ever want to upload these as individual photos, Google has a pretty good app called "Photo Scan". I've used it a few times to upload old pics. It's nice to have a digital copy in case anything happens! Just thought I'd share. :)
