World War 2: Episode 82: October 8-17, 1945

from Letters from the Past · host Scott Ginther

This episode focuses on the correspondence from an U.S. Army Captain deployed in Germany to his wife in Three Oaks, Michigan.   I took time out to listen to the final three innings of that sixth game.  Betty I sure wish we could have been there.  That was a remarkable game.  Now I’m all set for the 7th and last game. About nine o’clock last night there was a little trouble in this town.  A young man of about 19 took a small boy about nine and gave him a terrific beating.  Well it made me so mad I arrested the man. Betty if our country does one more damn thing for England, I would be willing to go through this last year again, just to defeat her the way Germany is. I'm slowly posting these letters to Gintherscott.com.
