Here's another photo of WWII servicemen at NBC I saw not too long ago...

I also came across some pages of a WWII photo album recently, although it's inaccurately titled as WWI at the source.
Johnny & Wesley's Leave in Hollywood...
Here are 4 of the album pages:
"A DAY IN HOLLYWOOD CALIFORNIA"
"Mrs. Darrell (sic) Zanuck, movie producer's wife, invited the boys to her home.
(I wonder how you got an invitation?)
In these photos are Johnny & Wesley with Mrs. Zanuck at their home which was located at 546 Palisades Beach Road Santa Monica, CA (90402).
Per the caption, Darryl Zanuck was in London at the time.
In these photos, Johnny and Wesley are with Norma Shearer.
These three photos show Wesley at the Chinese Theatre (talking!), with a tank and a group waiting for a train at Union Station.
(Another photo in the album shows the film playing at the Chinese Theatre at the time to be the Abbott & Costello movie Rio Rita, released in April of 1942.)
This last group has the boys at the Zanuck's with some "girls who work as movie extras", Earl Carroll's nightclub and we end up back at NBC Radio City where we started.
The 4 photo album pages (12 photos) I didn't picture are of the two boys in various areas in and around the
Zanuck's house and two of the Chinese Theatre forecourt.
