I have no idea why my grandpa is dressed like this and wearing a miner's hat with these gentlemen. We are descended from a long line of miners, but my grandfather was a teacher and vice-principal at Grebey Junior High School in Hazleton, PA. Were they actually in a coal mine? I don't know all the fraternal groups my grandfather was in, but most (I believe) were Catholic or education associated. I could be wrong.
Any ideas?
UPDATE:
My mother just emailed me after I posted and told me it was a teacher in-service to either a coal mine or a meat packing plant. The headlamps lead her to believe coal mine, but the white jackets made her think it could be meat packing.
