  1. “‘In 1945, these two American soldiers had hiked up into the Austrian Alps and a friend took their picture as they embraced in the snow. One soldier kept these snapshots hidden in a shoebox until the early 1990s when he handed them to a relative, along with the ring that he was wearing in the Alps photo, with the request: “Please keep these safe for me.” According to the relative, the soldier, nearing the end of his life, wanted to preserve the one thing that meant more to him than anything else. He passed away two years later.’”

  2. They must be an American.I saw in the comments that they are gay and Nazi.Guys just imagine two homosexual and Wehrmacht.They would be literally shot after photo taken.Btw photo is ultimate gay.

  3. One of the Irish pubs in my town has an Oscar Wilde room, recently redecorated with all manners of old timey gay couple pictures. It’s really nice

  4. If every county would send only gay men to wars that for sure would lead women rapes to zero but would it inscrase men rapes?

  5. There was something in the air that night, the stars were bright, Fernando.

    They were shining there for you and me, for liberty, Fernando.
