"FASCINATING ... MANY WILL APPRECIATE THE NOSTALGIA AND PERSONAL
LOOK INTO THE GREATEST ERA OF OUR AMERICAN HISTORY." -Dr. Bruce
Shields, Professor Emeritus, Yale
This personal history recalls family, love, and young romance
beneath the roar of a raging war, building on letters stored away
during World War II.
A widower now remarried, Charles Young retires from a long
teaching career in Greece and returns home to Connecticut with his
wife, Mary. After they move into his old family homestead, they
discover a box of letters in the attic. One letter at a time an
early life is revealed.
Charles was just finishing junior high school when World War II
broke out. He was a boy then and deeply in love with a girl named
Launa, with whom he'd meet at night in the park every full
moon-until they were discovered and Launa was sent away. There was
nothing to keep them together but their letters.
In 1943 Charles was accepted into a naval program at Harvard
University. Away from his family for the first time, he kept in
contact once again through letters, which included a detailed
account of his service with the marines during the battle of
Okinawa and the final surrender by the Japanese in Tokyo Bay in
1945.
Sharing a cache of letters from the early forties, Charles
recalls family, friendship, and love throughout his life.
