I never found out exactly what my father did, other than he and my
grandfather were electricians for the "government" (as they called it) in
New Mexico during the last couple years of the war. I have several pictures
of them in the desert without any sort of landmarks in the shots.

My mother worked at a factory in Saint Louis, to this day, she has never
talked about it.

Well after watching the Ken Burns series THE WAR ad naseum ad naseum,
I thought I'd come into the group today with one of my curious questions.

What did your parents, family, etc. do in the big WWII.

Mine worked at the Canada Car foundry in what was then called
Fort William, Ontario.

They were inspectors helping to make Hawker Hurricanes and later other
types of figthers including the Curtis Helldiver.

How about your folks.....
