I remember also, hearing that the war was ended.

Very clever to get that info out to your family on where he was at. I do remember my mom telling stories about hearing about Pearl Harbor and the war efforts, etc. What a difference in getting out the news of that attack compared to how the attack on 9/11 was all over the news within minutes and when it was still happening. <br /><br />You guys aren't old!!<br /><br />bettybettyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06323135450742337670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-33537653182191331932011-12-08T23:01:09.687-05:002011-12-08T23:01:09.687-05:00I like your brother's clever code.

I didn't really understand what it was all about. When a convoy came down our road we all ran down the lane to wave at the service men.Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04007728342316668058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3874656382203957840.post-48245135090057107472011-12-08T20:03:21.163-05:002011-12-08T20:03:21.163-05:00When I would see the picture of Odis and Jun.

I was in the first grade and two brothers in the Navy. We had a wonderful family. Good<br />memories. Mother made your suit and my blue<br />coat.

I remember them telling about it though. Both made it home from the war, but one uncle that was in the war over in Europe didn't make it home. I guess it is good to remember those times as sad as they are so we never forget how truly precious our freedom is.I'm mostly known as 'MA'https://www.blogger.com/profile/12107548726472541669noreply@blogger.com
