Kaunas, Lithuania, 1942 or 1943. Medical students at Vytautas Magnus University enjoy the weather. My Mom, in a striped cardigan, stands just left of center in the middle of the group.
UPDATE: Mr. Irene observed that this photo is quite similar to the one I posted earlier from the same era. He wondered whether the two photos weren't taken on the same day.
It's possible, but the fact that my Mom is wearing the same outfit is no clue. People owned fewer items of clothing then, and it's likely that Mom just wore the same thing on two different days. Besides, the weather looks colder in this photo. Here, people are wearing outer coats.
