A Centennial Memory

It was 1962.


I was ten, and even though every nickel counted in my family, my parents made an enormous investment in my future.

Thanks to Frank and Helen for the greatest possible career, had they only lived to see it.

I remember seeing these ads on the back of comic book advertisements.

Dear Sir,
As I recall, most of the Union soldiers had Sixth Corps crosses on their forage caps. Rob Hodge and I have discussed this matter in great detail!

Jubilo,

Right you are, a simple Genevaq cross, adopted in Feb-Mar of '63 (one of Hooker's initatives).
