    Why you asking? We don’t know.

      Judging from the waves, it could be 1942.

      (what?)

          Also if you account for the right dude’s stance and headwear you can narrow it down to may or june of 1942.

            If I have a look at the ass-pack (not fanny-pack) I would say early June.

              The location with the orientation of their shadows… It’s totally July, come on man!

                Damn. I totally forgot that plane shadows only start behaving that way after the 28th of June. Honest mistake on my part.

      Okay, so in the background is a Consolidated P2Y seaplane. Those were retired and withdrawn from service in 1941 and sent back to Naval Air Station Pensacola. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consolidated_P2Y

      So if it’s 1942, then it has to be in Florida at least.

      But how do we know if it’s 1942?? 😨
