Rationing during WW2

JEFF;
Rationing never did bother us.If we wanted to go shopping. We walked. You never saw too many fat people in those days. You have to remember that America was just coming out of the great depression. Money was tight. I come from a family of Polish immigrants. We all grouped together .Before the war my Dad made $11.00 a week. But it went far. There were but a few automobles.Food was cheap. My Mom could make food out of sawdust. Nobody never complained.

JEFF: I found that missing in action telegram from the War Department.I also found others telling my Mom that I was back under military control again.Plus others advising her of my physical progress from my wounds. As soon as I put them all together. I will post them under Remagan
