I just want to share an experience from the round table discussion with WWII Veterans at the Wilmette Library last week. One of the gentleman shared a story—he received a note from President Obama congratulating him on his 100th birthday!
I had such a good time sharing “Mollie’s War” with the WWII Veterans. They all commented that they knew the women soldiers had a tough job.

I met a gentleman, Phil Wertz, at the Lincolnshire Morning Star Rotary where I spoke this morning.   He mentioned that the Wilmette Library has a roundtable discussion with WWII Veterans the third Wednesday of the month and asked me if I could present my program next Wednesday (January 16) at 10 AM.   I am very excited to speak to Veterans about my mother and the role of women in military during WWII.  He said that there are only two women who attend but neither of them were Veterans.
