Shoebox Greetings! - Donna Reed and The G.I.s


I almost forgot to post this story from today's New York Times! It's an interesting story for this Memorial Day. A tale of adult children uncovering G.I. letters to their mother, the late actress Donna Reed. Over three hundred letters, notes, cards and photographs were discovered recently…in a shoebox! Apparently, she is one of very few Hollywood actresses who kept the things sent to her by the soliders and men fighting overseas. A must-read for all of you fans of World War II and/or life during the 1940s.
