My Dad at the 1948 London Olympics - Blog Day 7

Here are more of my Dad's photos taken of the Canadian Olympic Team as they crossed the Atlantic Ocean together to get to the 1948 Olympic Games in London.   Any captions shown in quotation marks are taken from my father's writing on the back of the photos.



Dad is hamming it up for the camera with a team mate.
