George F. Biller, Ordinary Seaman, USS Missouri – The Beginning of the Cruise

This group of cards includes some "sailor humor" cards that were popular during the day.  With no publishing company, I call them the, "Cover with One Cent Stamp" cards.  The other cards in the group might bring into question the relationship between George and his "Aunt" as in the card below, George writes "Longing to hear from you" on a card that is typically between a guy and a gal starting a relationship!  "Naval Maneuvers of Various Kinds."

San Francisco - May 12
