He Just Looked Great in a Uniform!

This is a photo taken by the Navy on Bob's return home from serving in the Pacific.  And the difference between a Navy portrait of Bob and an MGM portrait of same is ... MAKEUP!  Makeup and lighting can do wonders for a middle-aged actor, but Bob doesn't need it here.  So you can see his predominant five-o'clock shadow and his double chin, so what.  This is one handsome 39-year-old dude.
