Woman with revolver is Betty Lynn (Thelma Lou from The Andy Griffith Show). She joined a USO tour group during the war and found herself in some primitive locations in Asia and Africa. Carrying a sidearm was encouraged in some areas.

This is supposed to be folks at a roller skate place in the 50s. Is this real or AI? What's up with the "wheels". None of them look round.

It looks like the photo has been AI manipulated. Near as I can tell, this is the original.

Yeah, her face has been pretty radically changed, and none of the roller skates would roll. Nice find of the original!
