If you’ve ever wanted to meet one of the couples you’ve read about in War Bonds, you’ll have the opportunity on Thursday, February 11.
The Ratzmans’ story is told in chapter 18 “Letters From Home.”
They are a delightful, sharp-witted couple who truly fell in love through the letters they exchanged while Dean was serving in the South Pacific.
Here’s an excerpt from their story:
But it was her letters that kept a young man far from home from feeling too lonely. “Betty is a great letter writer,” he said. “Her letters were a highlight for me– but I didn’t know who else she was writing to.” He shot her a sideways glance. “She was very patriotic.”
This is a great opportunity to purchase a copy of War Bonds and have it signed by one of the couples featured.
PS: Valentine’s Day is SUNDAY 😉
