Nowadays he would have sent back a dickpic. Good old days.
My dad was a blast. Lots of good memories. I've drowned out the bad ones with rum.
Actually, my parents hadn't met in person yet. My mom and her sisters all wrote to service men overseas to support the troops and my dad got her letter. They wrote back and forth until he got out...
Thats pretty awesome, I'd like to think this was just them going back and forth with the meta picture within the picture thing going on forever.
That's because there were only beautiful people back then, apparently.
Then his grandfather will probably be upset.
I've heard that the US government would hire prostitutes for these men while they were deployed. Source: My asian studies class.

Ugh, no! Just think of the upkeep!
This is the cutest thing I have ever seen.
Did she send one back of her holding a picture of him holding a picture of her. More importantly how far does the photo loop gooooooooooooo
Wow that is beautiful and sweet! Warms my heart
young dumb kids think a few months is an eternity. My friends who broke up before heading out always ended up happier in the end. Everyone ends up happier.
Looks like a real Love Story ;-)
This is so cute omg
This is so beautiful. I'm such a sucker for romantic shit like this <3
This is amazing, and what I aspire to be as a man. Breathtaking, this picture is.
Ohhhhh yeah, they were Catholic
did he return home safely? Edit: to her
It is easily the most gorgeous China I've ever seen. It iridescent like pearls, and the jade color is striking. He went all out for my grandmother. I'm lucky to be descended from such a romantic ...
> I had to say goodbye to my girlfriend today who I won't be seeing > for six months Oh. You're in for a world of pain.
That is so sweet! These days it would probably just be a text with a dick pic.
P sure your grandpa is Edward Norton
There is so much love in this photo :)
Reddit is Fun app logs me out every time I reboot my phone. This is so fucking sweet I logged back in to upvote it.
This is so fucking adorable I'm projectile vomiting everywhere!
You guys can do it if you really try! My husband is Army and we were apart for a deployment + another year while he was overseas. You get to grow a as a couple in a different way than civilians -...
Didn't expect to be saying this at any point, but OP's grandparents are hot.
Just Taiwan, he didn't realize that the Mainland was a separate deal
This is adorable! Also, your grandma looks like Vivien Leigh.
It's an Arrested Development joke.
Trying to keep morale up, out there you just get on with it. It hits people more when its over and they are back home. Most people wont talk about it.
praying hands
Calling what that?
"Join us next time on history of Sexting!"
Word cloud out of all the comments. Don't like this? Message me!
I've wondered that myself. I know some branches of the military are more likely to see combat than others. My grandfather's job was to load bombs onto planes. I know he wasn't an officer. He en...
Ah, the original MMS.
True love there
my heart just melted
This is the sweetest thing I've seen in a longggggg time :)))
Half? That's optimistic.
Not trying to dog your grandfather at all, but I imagine as Air Force, he saw a much different view of the war than an infantryman did. Though that being said, it's not like there's not several p...
old day selfie
My grandparents will be married 60 years this July! And my gramps was also a Korea vet!
N IS FOR NO SURVIVORS
This is just as adorable.
It's funny you say that because a few years back, my grandmother had her old slides converted to digital photos and we all watched a slideshow of her photos from the old days. There were quite ...
/R/PrintedPhotoFetish #oddlyspecific
Awesome! These days it would be a few clicks and slap some shit on Facebook. This actually took some thought and preparation.
Your grandfather was Norm McDonald... :)
Now guys are OK with taking pics with their cocks out in a group.
Would wait a million years for that guy.
Grates are great!
That's really something. Thanks for sharing!
I love seeing pics like this, especially when we look at our grandparents so old, we forget they were young once upon a time..lol
Oh don't listen to those pessimists. Good luck to you.
It's sad this would probably be considered creepy by today's standards.
By getting drunk.
You mean Daesh
Awesome pic, by looking at this pic it looks like he was a lot of fun.
Whatever happens, you'll be more of a manly man in 6 months. Army training has a way of doing that to you, like it or not. From your post I believe you have a sappy side. So this is probably go...
Started dating a guy around the time he went to boot camp. Stayed home (2000 miles away) the four years he was in. We've been together 7 years, married just over one. Trust. Always trust each o...
Wow. This looks like it could be straight out of MAS*H.
This is adorable
Dammit. Feelings activated. ♡
How times have changed. We need more fat shaming.
This is in the days of having to get someone else to hold the camera. "Hey Bob, can you just take a picture of me while I get my dick out?" silence "Oh, fine, just take one of me snuggling up ...
That's freaking adorable.
Usually on my side, with a pillow between my legs.
That is so cool!
It's great just the same! Just like a selfie
The mere fact that you're still calling it that tells me you're not ready.
The original facebook
Wrong comment
He bought her China? Wow, that's a good reason to marry a guy.
This is so sweet!
On a big pile of money, surrounded by many beautiful ladies.
I don't. I'm a night shift worker :D.

Always trust a man who buys you China.
Aww so good I teared up :) lol
Relationships goals (without the war and long distance).
50s version of tributeme
I don't wanna get old.
How do you sleep with jpegs?
Your grandfather was Gene Kelly? Their profiles are very similar.
I'd find this picture really comforting actually. His smile is so genuine its like he's saying "look babe I'm happy and safe! I know your probably worried about me but don't be. Nothing bad can h...
What if his country is the islamic state of iraq?
This is beautiful
I'm starting to wonder if reddit is doing something to my brain. I saw this and thought "that is so fucking sweet" and then decided to post exactly that. And this is the top comment.
Haha, aww, I don't care how manly and masculine you are, this picture is cute as fuck. Are people still romantic like that?
Looks a bit like Mathew McConahay
This is a very sweet photo. I wonder how he is today
Curious to see how OP looks
My cats breath smells like cat food. Great pic.
10/10 would not try and get between their love.
This is why our elders think Skype is the best invention ever.
This photo is so amazingly romantic. Thank you for sharing!
When I was in basic, like half the guys got cheated on.
My grandparents (both sets) survived several years deployment during WWII. It definitely can be done and thanks for your service, whatever country you're in.
Your Grandpas profile reminds me a bit of Gene Kelly
Woah... you must be extremely attractive.
Wow this is beautiful!!!
R.I.P. Your relationship, Jody already has his eyes on her.
That is sweet. My dad was in Korea. This is the picture he sent my mom. Not quite as romantic. http://imgur.com/CfhwVBU
this needs an infinite loop photoshop.
Under the grates, are still greats.
Works for me.
"Back in my day, we wouldn't send nudes..."
Nobody ever ate fifty eggs
This is so adorable! I want to see their older pictures!
Oh my gosh, both my grandparents were in the korean war too!
Totally! This should be posted in /r/notreallyfamous as well.
This hits me right in the feels. Beautiful.
All the best to you!
How dare you warm my heart with your sweet story!
Dondt worry just appriciate this Picture.
I sleep in a beautiful bed with big ladies.
I'm more of a lateral recumbent guy.
And girls who send tit pics with duckfaces.
This is so sweet it gave me diabetes.
This is the first thing on this subreddit that's actually impacted me to tears. Wow. This is just the cutest, most romantic thing.

He looks kinda like Norm Macdonald.
*beautiful womans
Norm McDonald?
And also misspilled a word
This reminds me a lot of my grandparents. My great-grandmother used to send my Pop Pop home town newspapers in his care packages so he could stay up to date on the happenings. One of them had a p...
F is for fire that burns down the whole town. U is for uranium...bombs?
In a big bed with many beautiful ladies.
This great korean
Great Korean this
Supine position
Greats are great !
To be fair there wasn't snap chat in 1950s. Some guys were always horny, as evidenced by the rampant prostitution in every war basically ever.
This right here is what it's all about. Those he has obviously found a woman who he would love to the end of everything.
This makes my heart hurt.
Wow that's pretty freaking awesome!
How do you sleep at night
mine too! Grandpas are great. Koreans are great too. I don't know where I'm going with this.
You can tell he missed her. Nowadays, there are dudes who send dick pics back.
was your grandpa Cool Hand Luke?
That is too sweet!
Damn only beautiful people got married back then
Are your grand parents catholic? Looks like a saints medal around his neck... Wonder what it is.
Absolutely the best picture I´ve seen in a long time! Captures the love so perfectly.
some cool grandparents you got there.
Tell your Grandpa to print out this Picture and take another one completely similar, but let he hold this Picture. Your Grandma Will appriciate this!
This is awfully sweet.
My grandpa was also in the Korean War. Great pic.
That's so fucking sweet. Better than all the cat pictures I've seen today.
