The 1973 Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph “Burst of Joy," taken by Sal Vedar. A former US Prisoner of War is shown being reunited with his family.
Despite outward appearances, the reunion was an unhappy one for Stirm. It is depressing to read that three days before the picture was taken Lt. Col. Robert L. Stirm received a letter from his wife that she wanted a divorce.
His wife took 140,000 of his pay while he was a POW, took his two younger kids, house, car, 40% of his future pension, and $300 a month in child support. She had to pay back only $1500 of his money used on trips with other men.
He fought and lost against her in court. He then had to live with his mom in San Francisco taking care of his older kids.
Isn’t it crazy how…
The Govt’s new Elections Bill permits older person’s bus passes and Oyster 60+ cards to be used as ID
But not student cards and young persons railcards
And we’re just like…
Yeah, it’s just the Tories doing some election-rigging
Cool cool.
Just a guess. If you agree with Gary Lineker, you...
Didn't vote for Brexit
Are not a racist
Possibly not a tory
Disapprove of Boris Johnson
Don't like to see human suffering
Don't watch GBNews
Want the BBC free of tory governance
Would very much like a #GeneralElectionNow

Thanks to Brexit, Brits can work the longest hours in Europe, with the worst employment rights in Europe, until they reach the highest retirement age in Europe, then get the lowest pensions in Europe. Deal with it, meddling Brussels bureaucrats!!!
