The OG Popeye
This stoker worked for the Royal Navy in the 1920s and was aptly nicknamed Popeye. He was aboard the HMS Rodney during his service. It's possible the creator of the famous Popeye cartoon, E.C. Segar, was inspired by this man's likeness.
A Homecoming Soldier
This photo was taken by the famous photojournalist Ernst Haas. He photographed soldiers returning home from World War II, and his eye always managed to capture the bleak humanity of his subjects. Many of his images follow soldiers searching for survivors in concentration camps.
