Random nostalgia.
Surfing the ‘net, I found an old black-and-white photo with the title “US serviceman gives a French horn lesson.” A U.S. serviceman is holding his French horn while a civilian woman gets a close look. I love nostalgic photos like these.
At a country fair Sergeant Raymond Ganier, is saying to pretty Miss Verna Short, Pukekohe, NZ who is an admirer of both the French horn and the marine, “This is where I blow”.

It is part of a gallery of photos – “US Forces in New Zealand.” The gallery catalogs old photos from World War II when American forces were based in New Zealand as a part of the Pacific theater of operations.
