Description

Photo taken at the Highwood USO Club, depicting two men posing with caricature style set pieces. On the left, a serviceman appears to be driving a military Jeep which has the license plat SA USO. On the right, another man is standing behind the body of a US Army sergeant body. The room is probably in the basement of the club, given the low ceiling and visible pipes behind the men. A handwritten note on the back reads "SA USO Highwood ILL Fort Sheridan Photo shop sets We had our own dark room for those who came in to teach".
