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.

Christmas Presents For Service Men in 1943
From the October 17, 2018, MidWeek "Looking Back."
1943, 75 Years Ago.
"The Clare Community Center was filled with considerable sewing being accomplished and many boxes filled for the Christmas presents to service men."
