S/Sgt Nelson served in WW2 in the 60th Transport Group, deploying paratroopers, flying in supplies and evacuating wounded both in North Africa and Italy. Mentioned in this episode is SoldiersAngels.org Please check them out to find ways to help active and veteran service men and women and their families. During WW2 men and women were deployed throughout Europe and the Pacific and their only means to communicate home was through letters, handwritten notes to assure those at home they were alright and waiting for letters from their loved ones to provide semblance of support and normalcy. Over the years I have collected letters with the intention of returning to family - but first I’d like to share who these men were, where were they from and the context of where the soldiers were and what role they played in the War. Please sit back and get to know these members of the greatest generation. It is my hope that All letters in these podcasts will return to family. If you recognize the soldiers or families, please reach out to me at [email protected] and help me get the letters home Visit us also on Facebook!
