“In this and dozens of other, similar pictures made at New York’s Penn Station in 1944, LIFE’s Alfred Eisenstaedt captured a private moment repeated in public millions of times over the course of the war: a guy, a girl, a goodbye — and no assurance that he’ll make it back. By war’s end, more than 400,000 American troops had been killed.”

The first of the approximately 20 pages of notes that William Vandivert typed for LIFE’s editors in New York, describing not only the pictures he took but also the atmosphere pervading his examination of Hitler’s bunker and the Reich Chancellery grounds. (An example of Vandivert’s terse, vivid notations: “… view of chancellery palace … completely bombed, burned and shelled to hell.”) See the photos here.
