Letters from World War II: A Story of Life And Love During The Extraordinary Events of WWII by Barbara Jane Hannon

The telegram from the War department was delivered to my mother on January 23, 1944 that my father had been missing in action over Germany since January 11. My parents had been married for only two months when he flew to England to serve as a navigator on a B-17 Fortress flying bombing missions over Germany. They remained separated for over two years after his plane was shot down and he became a prisoner of the Germans. What kept their spirits and hopes up were the letters they wrote each other. Their story unfolds through these letters and reveals strength, courage, hope and an enduring love that transcended the horrendous events of the war that interrupted their lives like so many others of their generation.

Barbara Jane Hannon is the daughter of the couple whose WWII story is told in this book. After their deaths she found a box of letters and war documents that revealed her parents lives during the war. Although she says her parents never talked about the war, the story that unfolded was stunning, heart wrenching and at times horrific and worth sharing with others
