Our sincere thanks goes out to our new friend and Real War Photo historical-facts and photo contributor, Hal Burke. Hal served on the USS The Sullivans and is the 2017 Reunion Chairman for the USS The Sullivans DD-537/DDG-68 Association, and a contributing editor to military magazines such as The Tin Can Sailor.

We can’t thank you enough Hal for all the time, effort and hard work in interviewing, documenting and sharing these amazing WWII vets’ experiences.

Below is an excerpt from Hal’s Tin Can Sailor magazine article, one of his incredibly detailed stories on WWII veteran’s war experiences. Hal notes, “In fact, George 'The Kissing Sailor' Mendonsa was inspired to kiss the nurse in NY Times Square three months later on V-J Day 14 Aug 1945 by what he witnessed during the naval battle.”

Thanks so much Hal for your past and continued service,

 the Real War Photos staff
