NBC News this evening (Friday, August 12), commorated Eisenstaedt's V Day 
picture of the Nurse and Sailor entitled "The Kiss".  They showed a picture 
of Eisenstaedt holding what appears to an old Rolleflex and, of course, the 
implied suggestion is that he took the picture with a Rollie.  I always 
assumed, perhaps incorrectly, that because of Eisenstaedt's mutual 
admiration relationship with Leica that the picture was taken with a Leica. 
Anyhone know for sure?
