As an addendum to my letter of March 5th of 2011, I am sending further photos that the Civic Club might find of interest. These articles have been sent by my Aunt, Jean Tate, who wishes to be remembered to the club. Jean lives in Lebanon, Tennessee and wants to dispel the idea that she is “Missing in Action”.
