    My FIL (17 at the time) sent these to his nieces (appx 8 and 10 years old) when he shipped out during WW2. A few months ago the one of the nieces called us and told us the story and said that she wanted us to have them. So I framed them and hung them on the wall. We actually have a 3rd one (also white) that was given to the nieces mother
