A US soldier says farewell at Penn Station (Pennsylvania Station, New York), before being posted abroad in December 1943.

(Photograph by Alfred Eisenstaedt)
Eisenstaedt when speaking of the time he photographed American soldiers saying farewell to their wives and sweethearts in 1943 on assignment for 'Life' Magazine: “I just kept motionless like a statue.” he said. “They never saw me clicking away. For the kind of photography I do, one has to be very unobtrusive and to blend in with the crowd.”
