And for those of you who like mass nudity, we have this photo of British World War I
troops having a swim on the coast of France. This picture was generously provided
by my fellow Hawaii resident Larry. From the Imperial War Museum Collection.
J'adore ce genre de photo qui montrent le quotidien des hommes...

I love this kind of photo that shows the daily life of men ...
Mahalo Larry!!!
ReplyDeleteAre their faces tanned or sooty?
ReplyDeleteLikely tanned. Soldiers in that region would have spent a lot of time outdoors, but fully clothed for the most part. Only faces would be exposed enough to tan.
DeleteThe difference between faces/hand and the rest of their bodies is even more obvious and sexy when this pic is enlarged. The guy with the fine ass just above the officer in the boat, and the first nude dude to the right of the boat are great examples. I find this look very sexy, I suspect because it speaks of regular masculine men being men, not worried about primping and plucking and trimming and evenly tanning.
ReplyDeleteI've either seen this before or a much bigger photo showing more of the boat. Photos of British troops naked seem to be few and far between. I've seen hundreds of naked German soldiers and a few US military. I wonder why? Generally speaking, German troops didn't have any hang-ups about being naked in front of each other.
ReplyDeleteGerman troops had fewer hang-ups about cameras, too. You have probably seen other photos taken at the same time as this one which show more of the boat. I have four or five altogether which include most of the same men and different views of the boat.
