This photo, identified as the Aloha Cafe -- Tijuana, Old Mexico, circa early 1950s, was part of a Flickr photo series entitled "Remembering Grandpa Johnnie" by apanoply... And from part of a San Diego Union-Tribune article dated November 11, 1998: "Federal Judge Howard Turrentine, one of the donkey riders, sent the snapshot to me last year with a note explaining that the three crack Navy intelligence officers were in Tijuana in 1942 on a top-secret investigation of the Aloha Cafe or some other business -- 'probably where the beer was coldest.'
