Diving

 
My grand-father was one of the first diving men in french navy.
It was between 1920 and 1925.
I have no pictures of him from that time ,
but when I wanted to write his story
  I searched and found those postcards in flea markets.
 
 


Seeing the diving suit makes me think that
 those guys were very courageous , or fool..
