S/1 Stanley J. Dombrowski served as a Naval Armed Guard of the Merchant Marine ship the SS Eielson during WW2. Hear about brave service of the Armed Guards, the Merchant Marines, and hear S/1 Dombrowski's letters home.
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. Please visit me on Facebook, or email me at
[email protected] and help me get the letters home
Thank you for listening!
