Nurse in Times Square war photo reunites with Navy NEW YORK – A 90-year-old who says she's the woman being kissed by a sailor in Times Square in one of World War II's most famous photographs reunited in town with the Navy on Sunday — days before she is to serve as grand marshal of the city's Veterans Day parade.
Edith Shain of Los Angeles, donning a white nurse's uniform like the one she wore back in 1945, went to see the musical revival of "South Pacific" and posed for pictures, being hoisted off her feet on stage by five of the actors in their Navy whites.
On Tuesday, she'll ride in the parade at the head of a contingent of World War II veterans.

I am sure that is the case if he is a dancer in the Broadway cast of South Pacific.

I don't have a clue what terpsichoriphobia is and I am too lazy to look it up. I must be guilty. Is it a fear of terps?

Terpsichore .... the Greek muse of dancing, and hence dancers and dancing.
I made up the phobia bit.
Why not? They invented homophobia and islamophobia

I must have been absent the day they discussed Terpsichore in school, although I do recognize the root word.
I yield to someone better educated than myself and beg your forgiveness for my ignorance.
