This blog is about my dad, Ben, and his twin brother, Calvin. Both served in the Pacific during WWII. Calvin was killed in New Guinea, not in combat, but in an accident while unloading supplies from a barge. My grandmother saved all of the letters they wrote home from the beginning to the end. I read them when I was younger, but after reading them again recently I realized what an absolute treasure they are. I created this blog to be able to share them with family and friends.
Amber is 'John Thompson's store' the one where you and I would charge candy? And the home place they grew up is the home that can be seen from 321? I can remember going there a long long time ago with you and your mom and dad when your grandmother lived there.
