Title

USO New York Night, Community Hall, Anchorage

Description

Men (some in uniform) standing behind table laid out with food and drink during "New York Night" held by USO at Community Hall in Anchorage, Alaska. From caption: "The food was excellent prepared by the chefs of the Railway Battalion [714th Railway Operating Battalion, U.S. Army], which was Tony Saez's outfit. Unfortunately I never took the time to identify these." Beulah Marrs (later Beulah Marrs Parisi) described another event similar to this as "one of a series of state night events designed to help the men from the same state to get to know one another and have fun in preparing the activities and sharing a common interest."
