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 Nurse on Leave in 1943
From the August 15, 2018, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1943, 75 Years Ago.
"Lieut. Alta Wiley, A.N.C. who has been visiting relatives the past week, will leave for Douglas Air Field, Ariz. at the end of her fifteen-day leave.
"Lieut. Wiley id the granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. R.V. Wiley and the niece of Mrs. Clarence Mahin and Mary and Louise Barron."
