Pink Lady in Black and White

 

To complement Tom Isa's post at Cancan Favorites of Pink Lady in a video performance.

The first few photos of them show them in their new tricolore costumes.  The remainder show why they are called "Pink Lady".

There are even more photos to be seen at the Club CCD album:

"Hold Tight" USO Show

A salute to the troops, which must have been much appreciated by the 11th Airborne Division

From Camp Polk, Louisiana 1944


The name of the dance troupe is muddled on the back of the photo but appears to be the Catherine Behney Dancers.
