My Grandfather Sammy's Love for Technology is Captured in this Vintage Photograph

This is my favorite picture of my grandfather, Sammy. Though I was never close to him, when I see photographs of him, I feel as though I’m looking directly at my own father. Their similarities are striking, not only their appearance but their military history and their love for technology. My father believes this photograph was taken at a cinema on the Army base, where my grandfather worked as an after-hours projectionist at the age of 25. According to him, this is likely where Grandpa’s first interests in electronics took place, which eventually led him into the electronic intelligence field. ~shared by @joelle.michaela
