Box 1

Box One. My mom's WWII Army stint. Serving as an Medical Corps Dietician, she was stationed at Percy Jones hospital (Michigan), New Guinea, then San Francisco. Her personnel file, orders, cook books, dietary needs for wounded soldiers, personal souvenirs and letters, notes, ticket stubs. Of general interest: the announcement of FDR's death in two SFO newspapers and the packing list she used for overseas.
