Very interesting! I had no idea.
Pre-computer, pre-cell phone, three TV channels. Most people either played sports of some kind, or went dancing a couple times a week. I don't remember anyone under the age of 50 sitting around until the 1990's.That 70s NYC cop appears to be more 'athletic' than the gal (actually guys too) cops we have in Dallas. By about 100#.
I'm sure that most here know this already but...Sergeant Lena Mae Basilone, USMC(WR), ship's sponsor, prepares to christen the destroyer USS Basilone (DD-824), on 21 December 1945.
She was the widow of Gunnery Sergeant John J. Basilone, USMC, in whose honour the ship was named.
