Gillian's Found Photo #4

In this, our fourth installment of our Gillian's Found Photo feature, we delve into another area of the Fang's photographic collecting interests-- Black G.I.'s (she recently unearthed an amazing scrapbook of Black Panther G.I's stationed in Korea, hopefully she'll be posting some of those pics in the future). This soul brother has a message, it's written right on the back of the pic: "To Alice a sweet young lady. I don't look very happy do I. Snooky" (punctuation errors in original). No, poor Snooky doesn't look too happy. Hopefully he made it through his tour of Nam. BTW anyone out there with Black Power, Black Panther and/or Black G.I. snapshots to sell can write to the Fang c/o this blog site. What do you think of Snooky? And what of poor sweet Alice, waiting at home?

My guess is that Alice wasn't waiting at home alone. She was gettin' some.

I'll second that. Alice ain't even tryin to wait around at home. Is this Snooky's appeal?

Is that Alice in those posters?
No wonder Snooky is unhappy, thinking about her on the other side of the world...
