Sorry that I have been delinquent but have been doing the 82 yr. old problems. As I remember mail
and communications with family and friends was very far between. My mother had no phone or radio and had three of us in the service and all in war zones. Older brother in Burma and mid brother on a LST in the Pacific. Me the youngest in all three war theaters at various times of course. The mail had to catch up to me and my mother would always let me know if she had a letter from my brothers. Some times this could be
three to four months. Mail could be in a bunch or no mail at all. Sometimes we would share mail by reading certain things to each other that we felt was interesting. As lady friends we would meet in many ports and willing to be pen pals we would look forward to those letters and really enjoy them. These were a real morale booster. In the small town we came from in Maine the barber had all the service people pictures posted in his
barber shop. His daughter in law just recently sent me the pictures of me and my mid brother that he had posted during WW11. Glad to see you are back in here Melinda. Take care. Al
