I thought it appropriate to post this picture of Mom and Pop (Ruth and Billy) today since it is one day after Valentine's Day - it's a romantic picture - and two days after Mom's birthday. This was always one of my favorite pictures of them, but never asked if it was before or after they got married. I suspect the former.
Pop was in the Army Air Corps and assigned to a ferrying squadron. Mom must have found or made a jacket that looked like a uniform. She was 19 and he was 22 when they got married. Good looking couple! They were married for 59 years before Pop passed away in 2002. Mom past in 2009.
