Hey Peter,

So the guy who's dancing with Irene Thomas is Johnny Collins? And he was KIA in the Invasion of Africa? Who are the other two couples. The short guy and the little blonde are awesome!

Yea, the tall skinny dancer in the army uniform name is Johnny Collins, he was Killed in Action a couple months after this was filmed. (It was during the invasion of North Africa, The Troop transport ship got hit by a torpedo and it never made it to shore). RIP
