    It seems like this one may be hard to verify:Man says he's the sailor in famous photo The photo is certainly iconic but the identity of the subjects will probably remain inconclusive unless something were to surface from the photographer's own writings which present more clues.

    It's probably him.  If it isn't, it might as well be him.

    I guess the identity of the nurse in the photo is also up for grabs…Nurse in Times Square war photo reunites with Navy

    Since Eisenstadt says he cant remember and you cant see faces in the photo this is probably one where we will never know the identity of the couple in the picture.

    Too true and yet perhaps appropriate… they represent so many that brought us to where we are today with no personal agenda other than doing their best to serve the cause of freedom (and survive it all).
