Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Help deciphering handwriting on picture from WW2
« on: Wednesday 18 July 12 15:31 BST (UK)  »
Thanks for the replies!

I should also mention that my grandfather's name was "Tom". I wonder if the second word from right on the first line is his name?

Also, I'm not sure where the woman in the picture was located. But I believe my grandfather was in Nuremberg at one point. Not sure if that helps.

Annie65115, I think you might be right about the given name on line 2. At first I though it was a middle initial "H", but "Christl" makes more sense. Maybe the surname name is "Brendl"?

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Help deciphering handwriting on picture from WW2
« on: Tuesday 17 July 12 10:47 BST (UK)  »
Can someone please help with deciphering a short message from the back of the photo below? It is from my grandfather's collection, during his service in the U.S. Army during WW2. I believe this was taken in Germany, but I'm not 100% positive. He apparently had a romantic affair with one of the local residents. There are quite a few pictures in his collection of the woman second from right.

Thanks in advance,

-Dave
