The woman believed to be the nurse kissed by a jubilant American sailor in Times Square on V-J Day in 1945 has died at the age of 92. Though several people have claimed to be the woman shown in the iconic photo, Greta Friedman was deemed the mostly likely. Just 21 at the time of the snapshot, Friedman didn't know the sailor, George Mendonsa, when he kissed her. "The excitement of the war bein’ over, plus I had a few drinks," Mendonsa later said, "so when I saw the nurse I grabbed her, and I kissed her."
