Publisher's Synopsis
Ordinary kids grew up during the Great Depression, the potential of war
in their future. Walk in the shoes of Larry and others from the Class
of 1943. Get to know Larry from before the war through his discharge
from the United States Navy. Letters, postcards, journal entries, and
photos, along with other historic memorabilia and recollections, weave
together a story of one young man whose experiences mirrored those
of so many others. Radio, newspapers, and mail were communication
lifelines especially to young men far from home--their unanimous plea:
"Don't forget to write!"
