            Wow she is absolutely stunning. She reminds me of the actress Ione Skye a bit.

                i think this describes it
                The war-time organization known as the Naval Aid Auxiliary set up a series of stations across the country that acted like the many "canteens" that would provide entertainments and temporary housing for servicemen and sailors in the middle of their transfer from one location to another. Continuing War Bond and Stamp drives, regular print ads and newsreels, patriotic posters everyw you looked, these and more kept the dollars flowing to the benefit of the nation's cause. But as the nation had less to give, special promotions were sometimes deemed necessary to generate even more money from our nation's exhausted and financially strained population. The NAA received a lot of their much-needed funding from public donations, much of which was raised by hundreds of Hollywood's brightest through personal appearances across the land. Since the heads of NAA had access to these stars, someone eventually came up with the idea of selling the autographs of these stars to a ready public, as a fund raiser. In 1943-1944 the NAA had signed up almost 200 celebrities who had already dedicated hundreds of hours working in the stations but were still willing to pen their autographs on specially prepared signature cards that the NAA provided. This promotion was advertised and a full list of available signers was sent out to anyone who ordered from the ad for just 25 cents!

                Rita Hayworth was also in NAA
                I don't think that it was Gene Tierney, but she looks very close to that great actress. Whoever she was, she could have been some Hollywood starlet. At any rate, she was a gorgeous woman by anyone's standard. Thanks for the explanation of what the NAA was.

                          Gene Tierney

                          Hi,

                          So you believe the lady in photo number 422, is Gene Tierney? Sorry, but I don't think it is. The woman in pic 437, is of course the late,great and gorgeous Gene Tierney.

                            Gene Tierney

                            I've been in contact with the facilitators of her official website. They confirmed it. She was pregnant at the time the photo was taken, early 1943. there is a lot of other additional info on her service, the Hollywood Canteen for servicemen etc. But I dont know if its appropriate to share it all here. Maybe in the US Forum.

                              These are all from a private set of pictures from USO shows in the China India Burma theatre.
