I normally don't post when someone passes on, but this was kind of interesting since most don't know the name. Remember the kiss that came at the end of WWII, shown in Times Square?

RIP George. Saw this one on the news last evening. Probably one of the most famous kisses in history. :yes:

There's a statue of "the kiss" at the Navy memorial in DC.
