(Unknown/Stars and Stripes)
Tokyo, Japan, sometime in 1955 (probably): To celebrate Stars and Stripes Pacific’s 80 anniversary, we’re showing some of the many images we have of the people who made those first few decades possible (and tasty!).
Stars and Stripes Pacific holds many images of personnel and its operations in their archives, but few have the exact date noted, so the year this photo was actual taken is unknown.
From left to right: Glenn Pratt (1955-?, reporter), Richard “Dick” H. Larsh (1946-1958, 1961-1967; ESS 1958-1961, feature editor). Background: Al Ricketts (1952-1968, entertainment editor), Hank Simons (1955-1957, reporter and photographer), and Alvin Moore (1955-?, artist).
