Somewhere out there in the world, I have a sister - or a brother - that I've never met. This is a photo of my Dad and the woman who had a child by him, in late 1945/early 1946. They were both stationed in Kasfareet, Egypt. She went back to England to have the baby. She was Jewish and came from London. He asked her to name the baby "Michael." After the baby was born she told him it was a girl and that she had called her "Michelle." My Dad said that he met her once years later briefly - but the details are very vague. I have not been able to find her anywhere in the freebmd index - but maybe if the baby was really a boy, he's there. Wouldn't it be amazing to connect? Written on the back: Norman Bates, (posted, hooray!) Tommy West, Bobbie, myself.
