And five bucks from FDR? Wouldn't doubt it, considering he wouldn't tip the train porters when he traveled. 🤨
Frankly, $5 is an insult. If he really wanted to help those women, he could make sure that the incompetent generals got nowhere near US troops and sailors.🤬
Sorry, I've been studying WW2 history and getting spun up. 🫤
Similarly, during Desert Storm we got tons of mail addressed to "Serviceman" aboard our ship. That didn't happen in the Vietnam War. I keep telling myself that there is a wellspring of goodness in the American people even if it not always manifest. There is always a way to pay it forward.
God bless those ladies. 🙏

Makes me wonder if my grandfather went through there on his way to Farragut in Idaho.
That's my home town. My mother & Rae were two of the ladies who got the Canteen going.
Thanks for one more demonstration that the greatest generation was really the greatest.
