Glenn & Grover Allen, brothers from Haverhill MA served in WW2 in different branches of the military, one in Europe and one in the Pacific. Their letters were forwarded to me by Mr. Boyd of Georgia, hoping for their stories to be told and perhaps having the letters returned to family or appreciated by their home town of Haverhill MA. Please have a listen to their stories! I will be contacting veterans organizations in Haverhill MA shortly.
During WW2 men and women were deployed throughout Europe and the Pacific and their only means to communicate home was through letters, handwritten notes to assure those at home they were alright and waiting for letters from their loved ones to provide semblance of support and normalcy. Over the years I have collected letters with the intention of returning to family - but first I’d like to share who these men were, where were they from and the context of where the soldiers were and what role they played in the War.

Please sit back and get to know these members of the greatest generation. It is my hope that All letters in these podcasts will return to family. If you recognize the soldiers or families, please reach out to me at and help me get the letters home
