    Yesterday the only other plus sixty guy in the office peered over the top of my cubical wall with just eyes and nose and shaved pate showing. When I looked up I laughed and said, "You look like Kilroy."

    He said, "That's exactly why I did it."

    Thought I'd start a thread for good "Kilroy was here" pictures.

    Here's one.

    When Mr. Marion and I went on the Honor Flight in 2010, that was the first thing he wanted to see at the WWII Memorial.

    Foggy memory is telling me there may be a Kilroy thread here from years ago. I recall collecting a few examples also.

    Otto, I think this is it. http://www.ww2f.com/topic/6439-kilroy-was-here/?hl=kilroy
    Goes all the way back to 2005! You have a great memory.. There are some great examples of where the phrase originated and some great references to movies, TV, and games where it was used. You must have had a lot of free time. ^_^
