I might add, I also question the authenticity of the photos.
I do, however, remember may sailors from Millington Navel
Air Station, dressed in their whites, spending weekend nights
downtown.
My father ran a large clothing store, (Bond Clothes) on Main Street.
From about 1950, age 6, I spent many Saturdays at the store.
I knew downtown quite well.

Today, it is all “gone with the wind”
