Bob Hope




This picture of me was taken off the TV by my mom. The camera was set up on a tripod all ready to go by my dad. He was not home at the time of the airing of this Bob Hope Show from Vietnam. Lucky for me that guy in front lowered his head at just the right moment! That's what mom always said about this picture. Great timing, mom.

The Bob Hope USO show was televised in 1965. Mom and Dad were hoping to see Tommy, and they did! As it turned out it was announced that the show would be rerun, and that's how mom got the picture. As the rerun was on Friday evening, Dad had gone to his camera club meeting.
