    Even tho I was just a little child I remember the Patriotism of WW11--In celebration of my mom's cousin, a sailor Herbert Larson,of Minn. the whole family had something patriotic on and we went to the zoo. I had a little flag I carried all the way. My father made a home made recording on one of the very first machines to do home recordings on, the discs were cream colored ( now yellowed) an about the size of a 45 .
    I HAVE THEM PICTURED #2 FEDERAL & HAMMER-HILL HOME RECORDING DISCS
    I sang a song about marching and there was guitar playing background of patriotic songs in the evening. I still have a round tin containing the records. It is hard for me to listen to it, because all my family singing is dead now. I cry all the way thru
    This photo of me 1941 or 1942 and one other of my mom's cousins the sailor (on leave) in full uniform and his sister exist.
    Three Cheers For The USA!! Then and Forever!
