Wednesday's Portrait: Lawrence Jacob Jackering (1920-1941)

Today's Portrait: Lawrence Jacob "Tom" Jackering (1920-1941)- my 5th Cousin, 3x Removed.

This is such an interesting photo- bad quality with the lighting, but it couldn't have been taken too long before his death, since he died at the age of 21.
