EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Colonel Park Holland, the esteemed Wing Commander of the USAF 85th Air Depot-Wing, is seen engaging in an unexpected activity at the Headquarters of United States Air Force in Erding, Germany, in 1947. The Colonel, dressed in his full military uniform, sits at a table with a group of curious and wide-eyed German children, all dressed in their Sunday best. The children, with rosy cheeks and bright smiles, are intently focused on the game of dominoes before them, their small hands poised to make their next move. A nun, dressed in her traditional habit, watches over the scene with a benevolent expression, her arms folded across her chest. The serene and peaceful atmosphere of the moment is a stark contrast to the turmoil and chaos of the post-World War II era. The backdrop of the image reveals a line of planes and aircraft, a reminder of the military presence that had recently occupied the region. This photograph encapsulates the spirit of reconciliation and healing that was taking place in Europe following the end of the war. The image of the Wing Commander, a man of authority and power, playing a simple game of dominoes with local children, symbolizes the importance of human connection and the power of compassion, even in the most challenging of times. The presence of the nun adds an additional layer of meaning, representing the role of faith and community in the healing process. The photograph is a poignant reminder of the human side of military life and the enduring power of kindness and understanding in bringing people together, even in the most divided of circumstances. The image is a testament to the resilience and adaptability of the human spirit, and the ability to find joy and connection in the most unexpected of places.
