Hello, Ladies!



The time is August 1963, and these two young lads chose Disneyland for their time off from the Navy. I can almost hear the whistles as these two ladies pass by them on the way to the Chicken of the Sea Pirate Ship Restaurant. I wonder if they shared a tuna sandwich? I'll stop right there.



Could this be an early selfie, carefully crafted to avoid looking like one, or was there possibly another naval buddy joining in their off-shore shenanigans?



This previously posted shot of one of the men taking over the ship is apparently part of the same batch from which I just acquired these other two shots.



Who knows what other gems will be found from August 1963?

The Navy Takes Over



In this August 1963 image, a Lieutenant in the U.S. Navy has taken over the Chicken of the Sea Pirate Ship, formerly located at Disneyland. Over his shoulder, you can see the tip of Skull Rock. I wonder how Captain Hook felt about all of this?
