Description
Eighteen uniformed women stand in a semicircle. A man stands in the midst. A woman to his left wears a whistle and holds a baton, suggesting she is the captain. The photo is quite dark; perhaps it was taken in the early morning before the parade began. Reported in "Patriotic Spectacle in State Legion Parade That Stirred Memories of World Conflict...," Los Angeles Times, 01 Sep. 1931: A1. Text from negative sleeve: American Legion Parade. Long Beach, Calif. 8-31-31
