The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.

Hosiery Depot Set Up in Sycamore


From the December 20, 2017, MidWeek  (DeKalb County, Illinois)  "Looking Back."

1942, 75 Years Ago.

"According to an announcement from the office of the State's Attorney Ross E. Millet, who as county salvage coordinator, a hosiery depot has been set up in the store of McAllister and company on State Street in Sycamore.

"This is for the receipt of discarded nylon and silk hosiery as well as several combination materials in hosiery containing either rayon, silk or nylon."
