What is the name of the photograph with the sailor kissing the nurse?
There's this old picture that is the icon of the end of WWII, and it is a picture of a guy from the navy kissing some random chick in the street. What's the name of that photo? Do you know any history behind it?
It is an interesting story, and the photo has a long caption. Read about it below:

The nurse who was being kissed died this past June. Several men claimed to be the sailor, but through identifying marks it was narrowed down to the actual sailor.
