I notice that in this photo and the previous one, also a Pratt Institute picture, the same student Army cook, stands with his left hand planted on his hip. Twice, 100 years ago, his nonchalance was immortalized on film. I find it amusing......almost Forrest Gump ahead of his time! :) Sure do enjoy the LOC photos.
