we are off to new places.
“Can you be ready to leave by noon?” my
husband asks.
To which I reply, “Yes, with powder on my nose.”
WWII was a different era; ladies wore gloves and
hats to luncheon, church or shopping. Military wives followed their
husbands to each new post, creating homes from ugly rented rooms. Their
lives were marked with courage, humor, tragedy and the determination to
help win the war.
Everything from a chocolate cake that might have been
a secret weapon, to discovering their German maid danced for Adolph Hitler
was recorded in short story form by Mary Belle Estes during the war and
afterward, both abroad and at home.
