What Motivated Us to Win the War


Stacy and I have been going through some old photos of her Grandma Bunny and Grandpa Lefty, scanning them and organizing them and trying to identify people and places. It's been a lot of fun, more so because Bunny and Lefty like the fact that she’s doing it and are eager to provide the stories and backgrounds of each. (We greatly regret that we never had the chance to talk with her maternal grandmother Ann before she passed away – there are so many pictures we have of that side of the family that we can’t identify or place.)

One of the things we’ve noticed in going through Bunny and Lefty’s photos is what a babe she was, and what a stud he was! Stacy comes of good stock. Good news for L and N, because they’re not going to get a lot of help from Daddy’s side!

Lefty (on the left, of course) and a friend during the war.


Bunny, who should have been a pin-up girl.


No, really, a pin-up girl...


Beauties and the Booze: Bunny (left) and her friends making sailors across the country recommit themselves to the fight.



Lefty (center) and more navy buddies.


Wow! How did Hollywood miss these two?
