is the most crucial in any love story. It changes the relationship of two people much more strongly than even the final surrender; because this kiss already has within it that surrender.
Hey…maybe making out some more can help us figure things out.

It is December 1941.
During WW2 a photographer was assigned to see what would happen during a blackout.
With all the lights turned out, Harold Dale Mouser, 17, didn’t waste anytime.
He is seen kissing his girlfriend Lenore Dorthy Frank of Seattle.
The two eventually got married and raised five children.
