• ** DISCLAIMER **   This is a personal family legacy project. Please be aware that these images contain depictions of war themed photographs, headlines and articles published in national newspapers during the 1940’s. This scrapbook also contains offensive language, profanity and historical memorabilia items from a time when societal and personal views were very different from today.

When my mother and her parents passed away, they left behind an amazing piece of unique American history in the form of a scrapbook chronicling major achievements throughout my grandfather’s life including letters sent home during his time served in the U.S. Navy during WWII, details of his travels with the Navy reserves after the war and some highlights of his long work history as a mechanic/parts manager in Palm Beach, Florida.
