| One of the girl's mothers in the picture insisted on giving the
Major pictured above one of the traditional costumes the girls are
shown wearing. He said they buried them during the war for
safe-keeping and dug them up when they were liberated to celebrate. His daughter was about the age of the girls, and he took the traditional dress home to his daughter. His granddaughter now has that dress you see in the picture. |
