Your coloring of the photo is excellent, Rob. The emotional captures of the young children is amazing.

If kids today only knew! Another great colorization Rob.
You have added color to a dismal b/w life for the children.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.

Rob, although this photograph is taken a long time ago, it's still a touching photograph to me. It's another good selection of these available photographical time documents from you. Your perfect colorization with apt colors enhances this feeling. As Tick (OFT) already said, if today kid's knew about the terrible situation in this era, I think they wouldn't believe that this ever is happened.
My heart cries when I see such situations in the present time in certain countries. Thanks for making me aware of this again, my friend!
