Operas, high tea and visions of Christmas break. Things seem to be going well for young Josephine in Philadelphia.

Another letter from Josephine. Interesting discussion about aircraft and her love for planes. She even mentions that she has joined the Junior air reserve.

Book 1 – Letter 45 Received October 5, 1942 from Josephine

It seems that Josephine is feeling a bit homesick for California and the friends she has left behind. She mentions the gas rationing that happened during their journey east. Interesting that she speaks of school not yet starting in October which seems very late to me.

A funny little postcard from Josephine. It must have been difficult for this young girl to move across the country to a new city.2015_09_08_13_27_26 2015_09_08_13_27_32
