My Cooter's History Blog has become about 80% World War II anyway, so I figured to start a blog specific to it, especially since we're commemorating its 70th anniversary and we are quickly losing this "Greatest Generation." The quote is taken from Pearl Harbor survivor Frank Curre, who was on the USS Tennessee that day. He died Dec. 7, 2011, seventy years to the day. His photo is below at right.

A Follow Up On Those 250 Letters
Follow up on previous post from Oklahoma 9. //// Eurall Harvill's children, Teri Winnert and Mike Harvill traveled from Texas and Tennessee to receive their father's letters. Teri Winnert read part of her father's letters written nearly 70 years ago, saying: "I won't get too thick with her because I don't want to get married." Three months later, he was married to that girl, Teri's mother. //// I did not come across whether Robert's family was at the ceremony. //// The Kind of Story You Like to Hear. --GreGen
