Free online jigsaw puzzle celebrating Memorial Day and all branches of the military. The jigsaw puzzle is of an Air Force uniform with two blank identification dog tags resting on the pocket.
Going to Ct. on Tuesday to visit my cousin. Her father was in the air force and retired from there and then went to work for Pratt Whitney in Hartford.
Not really but I love technology. I have a cell phone, an IPod touch, an Ereader and my lap top. I really love my IPod because I can take my music anywhere.

With you there! Love my cell & my laptop - well, gadgets generally. I have to be very disciplined when I go to tool shops or hardware stores!! It pays to be a bit of a handywoman, though, so I like to have the tools to work with.

My husband was in the 697th field artillery battalion "C" Battery started out at Fort Bragg NC in 1940. Thank God he went through the was and come home unhurt. He went to heaven in 1990. I still miss him.

Thank you for the sacrifice you both made. You husband is with you every time you think of him. My dad was a submariner and my mother was a Rosie the Riveter during WWII. Don't hear that much about Rosie's and what they did during that period.

The women who went to work after the men left for military service worked in a variety of positions, but the ladies that worked in the aircraft plants and shipyards got the name Rosie the Riveter. There were also women that flew the planes from US to England, women that helped with calculating the range for bombing runs, several worked on the Manhattan Project also. Jobs that were once held primarily by men were now being handled by women. Basically, it was the beginning of the women's movement after women got the right to vote. One of the Rosie's had been married to a Navy man who worked on a supply ship in the Pacific. While he was on that ship, he wrote stories that turned into the play/movie that you may have heard of called "Mr. Roberts."

Oh yes, a very poignant story. Loved it - I think most of the actors in Mr Roberts have now passed away, but it was a great story.
