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.

Homes Being Subdivided Into Apartments for Defense Workers in Sycamore


From the January 9, 2019, MidWeek,  "Looking Back."

1944, 75 Years Ago.

"Exceptionally fine progress is being made at the Adee home on West State Street in Sycamore, the large family home being converted into suitable apartments for defense workers.

"Much of the inside  preliminary work had been completed, and the plasterers  soon will finish, after  which the various rooms will be turned over to the decorators.  The home is large enough for several small convenient apartments and it is understood that all available quarters have been spoken for by prospective tenants."
