stock_steve Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) I am jumping way ahead of my slow pace at the "Hershey 2014 Favorite Photos" thread, but I've been unable to find any references (at Coker web sites and/or other places) about this group of young people with what appear to be WWII-era military uniforms/clothing, that were seen at various points around Hershey this year. Someone told me they were singers?? Anyone have any info? Thank you.EDIT: Just discovered Coker Tire Facebook page and posted an inquiry there also: https://www.facebook.com/cokertireco?fref=nf Edited December 27, 2014 by stock_steve (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenie Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Mystery solved. When they showed up at Hershey 2015, I aked them. They are a family from Tennessee and they enjoy history- esp. WW II history. So the children wear the uniforms to spur conversations about the "Great War"; and to show appreciation for those who served. In the picture (above), I think Mr. Coker was simply extolling the virtues of his many product lines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Block Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 I saw the family too. Right out of WWII (Worlds War II era) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bollman Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Not sure if it was one of the same family but a young fellow in full WW-2 like uniform went by our space (late afternoon not much foot traffic) on what appeared to be an electric unicycle. Smaller wheel than a normal unicycle and just pads/pegs to stand on, no pedals. Was going right along with his hands behind him like he was at parade rest.
