Preoccupied


Near Kaunas, Lithuania, June 16, 1940. My Dad's twin sister, Jonė (second from right), wrote on the back of this photo, "The Bolsheviks have arrived." The Soviet Union occupied Lithuania beginning on June 15, 1940.

Thanks to my Toronto Cousin for making this photo available to us.

And things would get very bad very quickly.

I hope those people understood what was coming and enjoyed the time they had.
