May 1, 1945

Because of the extensive damage to the Haggard, there is no letter from Dart today. Instead, I’ll post a somewhat fuzzy photo of him, taken sometime before the kamikazi attack. Doesn’t he look younger than the maturity of his letters would lead you to believe he was?

No letter from Dot, either, because the letter she began on April 30 ran into May 1. More from her and Dart tomorrow.

  1. Thanks for adding this photo to the blog, but why doesn’t it show up in the photos section? Just curious about the blog mechanics.
