P is for Paper

I am the keeper of papers in our family.  I have secured marriage license from my great-grandparents, war records, birth certificates and anything else that is of importance.

A few months ago at my Moms I was looking for a newspaper article from my childhood and found it, that is for another post.

I found this newspaper from 1945.  The Tulare High School printed a 4 page layout of the graduating class.

My Mom is the second from the right on the top row. 

The front page featuring the four leading students who would speak at the commencement.
 
 
 
 
 
Around the same time my Mom was graduating from High School my Dad was attending the U.S. Army Air Corps Technical School in Belleville, Illinois.
 
This is a post card that he sent his mother.
 
A passage from the pamphlet reads:  "Here at Scott Field is the world's finest school for the training of radio men. Within a few years 2,400 acres of Looking Glass Land have been transformed into a vast military college where men are instructed in every possible intricacy of radio."
 
My Dad served as a radio tower operator in WWII in Anchorage Alaska.
 
 
My Mom gave me these two pieces of Paper to take care of which is one my passions.
