This view of 1133-1131 Woodbine Ave. was taken on VE day in May 1945. The bunting and flags celebrated the end of the war in Europe. The Union Jacks at 1131 were displayed by an English family whose father served in the British army. The Treadway family, who lived next door, were rejoicing over the return of their cousin John Angus at #1125. He was the only survivor when his Lancashire Bomber was shot down while on a raid over Germany. Special thanks to Ed Treadway for the photo.
