Description

Father's Day. Copy of a photograph of Oscar Wayne Gray, Marine Sergeant, stationed in San Diego. "A father meets his 'sons'- W. C. Gray, 315 East Weatherford Street, with two sons in the Marines and one a Japanese captive, visited the United Service Organizations headquarters at Hotel Texas Saturday evening to get acquainted with the trio of soldiers who will visit in his home Father's Day." Marine Sergeant Gray is the actual son of W. C. Gray, but he is unable to see his father on Father's Day due to his military commitment. Instead, a trio of other soldiers will perform this duty for him. Marine Sergeant Gray is wearing his uniform with his hat slightly tilted to the side.
