Louise Warroquiers of Liege, Belgium married her GI and took this picture on the Bridgeport. She and her son Johnny are on the right. The others names are unknown but this was found on the back of the picture.
"Some very kindly friends who take care with the baby during the travel. Do you see the cinema?". The message was in french, written by Louise. Note: Louise Ricketts arrived in New York on May 20, 1946
