Something from my parents father born 1920 mother 1921 . Both came from large families , my father talked of the girls in his family wearing dresses made out of flour sacks . When my father was 16 he lied and joined the CCC camps . To him it was a great experience . My mother's family was from Hungary again a large family . My mother used to tell us kids during WWII all the men were in the war . Every evening the women in her small town would get together at the church and make quilts for their loved ones . She said it was more of a social and what's going on type thing. Several of her girl friends lost their husbands , brothers , friends or reletives . She always said this made them stronger . As far a money mom and dad had two words
(Were broke )
Dad came home from II , worked 37 years in a foundry , raised 3 boys paid his home off . He lost his left leg in WWII so he worked on an artificial leg
never complained . To me my parents are true American heroes My Grandparents on father's side first generation German . My mother was first generation Hungarian.
