Моя любимая Бабушка 93 года, пошёл 94ый. Ветеран Труда СССР, Ветеран Великой Отечественной Войны, партизака и колхозниза, пускала фашистские поезда аод откос. Поднимала страну с колен в 1930-ых, труженик фронта в ВОВ, далее всю жизнь работала дезинфекиором и своими руками боролась с распространением зловещих инфекцией в СССР. Рассказала всю правду о коллективизации и второй мировой войне! /////My beloved grandmother is 93 years old, went 94th. Veteran of Labor of the USSR, Veteran of the Great Patriotic War, partisan and collective farm worker, let fascist trains downhill. She raised the country from its knees in the 1930s, a front worker in the Second World War, then worked as a disinfector all her life and fought with her own hands against the spread of sinister infections in the USSR. She told the whole truth about collectivization and the Second World War! #ww2veteran #veteran #ww2 (at Kosaya Gora, Tul'Skaya Oblast', Russia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnFEecMs9rn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

MUSEUM PREVIEW by Phil Lederer for @srqmag! ‘“For Sarasota’s art aficionados and culture vultures, the works of acclaimed abstract expressionist Syd Solomon are well known. And for locals, his time here remains a source of cultural pride and a milestone in the area’s artistic history. But a new exhibition opening this December at The Ringling Museum—Syd Solomon: Concealed and Revealed—proposes to dive deeper into the artist’s early life and inspiration than ever before, presenting a definitive origin story for a man who became a local legend.” [Syd Solomon “Silent World” 1961.

#didyouknow Anthony D. Benedetto, of Astoria Queens, enlisted in the US Army on November 2, 1944 at the age of 18 years old. Benedetto completed his basic training at Fort Dix, New Jersey, and then Fort Robinson, Nebraska. In January 1945, Benedetto was assigned to the 255th Infantry Regiment of the 63rd Infantry Division, a unit filling in for the heavy losses suffered in the Battle of the Bulge. The 255th moved across France, and later, into Germany. "In March 1945 Benedetto entered the front line. As the German Army was pushed back to its homeland, the 255th saw bitter fighting in cold winter conditions, often hunkering down in foxholes as German 88 mm guns fired on them. At the end of March, the unit crossed the Rhine and entered Germany, engaging in dangerous house-to-house, town-after-town fighting to clear out German soldiers. During the first week of April, they crossed the Kocher River, and by the end of the month reached the Danube." (US Department of Veterans Affairs and pbs.org) "During his time in combat, Benedetto narrowly escaped death several times. At the war’s conclusion Benedetto was involved in the liberation of Kaufering concentration camp in southern Germany, where some American Prisoners of War from the 63rd Division had been held." "Under the stage name of Joe Bari, he began singing with the official 314th Army Special Services Band. After returning to the United States in 1946, Bennett studied at the American Theatre Wing and formally trained as a singer. In 1949, the singer Pearl Bailey invited him to open for her show at a club in Greenwich Village. At the show, Bennett met the actor and singer Bob Hope who gave him the stage name, Tony Bennett and encouraged him to tour. Tony signed with Columbia Records in 1950 and had his first number-one song with “Because of You” in 1951.

I recently had this drawing framed. It’s a drawing of my nineteen year old father created by an artist in Paris the week of August 25, 1944. That was the week following the allied liberation of Paris from the Nazis. My father told me the mood of the city was jubilant and joyful. Dad was hanging out in a Parisian cafe with some of the young people of the city. (sporting a newly grown moustache perhaps inspired by the locals?) One of the group did this drawing for my dad, and as you can see from the wrinkles and creases, he carried it in his pocket through the remainder of the war, and brought it back home for his sweetheart (my mum). She passed away on New Years Eve 2018/2019. I retrieved the sketch from her belongings before the contents of her home were divided and dispersed. I just realised a few weeks ago that this drawing laying in my drawer, would be 77 years old in a short time.. So it was definitely time to give it a proper home. * * * * * * * #charcoaldrawing #paris1944 #ww2 #ww2veteran #thankyouforyourservice #drawingoftheday #supergorgeousness #instagay #helleaux #learningtosee #artnerd #inspirationiseverywhere #instagrammers #appropriation #artfag #arthag #Helleaux #StayAtHomeModel #shotoniPhone (at Newport, New South Wales, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQki0VnrtpZ/?utm_medium=tumblr

In later years, he worked at United Neighbors as a mentor to local youth. Leon loved the racehorses, playing cards, and golf, but his greatest joy came from the time he spent with his wife of 56 years, Voncille. PFC Tellie passed on March 17th, 2006 at the age of 80.
