29 Aug 1942, Ella Buuck's wartime diary

Submitted by Admin on Fri, 07/20/2012 - 21:02

We arrived in Fort Wayne on Saturday afternoon ((August 29)) where the family and friends met us. Again the photographers were there but this time they were much more polite and did not fight among themselves and push each other as they had in New York.

To say the least, Fort Wayne ((Indiana)) looked mighty good to us and so did the chicken dinner that we had been talking about for months. Lest you get me wrong, we were also very happy to see all the family there, yet: for, not having heard for 8 months, we were not sure what to expect.

((This is the end of Ella's wartime diary.))
