28 Dec 2024 Garand Picture of the Day
At an Army encampment near a southern California aircraft factory last month, perky movie starlet Marilyn Hare embarked on one of the most formidable morale-building projects yet contrived for the U.S. Army. A good fighting machine, she knew, thrives on joie de vivre. From her father, the late Ernie Hare of the famed pioneering radio team call the Happiness Boys, 18-year-old Marilyn had learned the art of evoking merriment in others. But in this hour of national crisis, Miss Hare had evolved a unique inspiration program of her own. It was her aspiration to kiss 10,000 soldiers.

She wandered around kissing soldiers at various task. 733 soldier smacks she gave. No record of more.
