she is 100 yrs old and enlisted in 1942. I was visiting the TN State Veteran's Home again today for BINGO and saw a new player that looked like she needed some help. not real sure she knew what we were playing some of the time, but she would smile when I covered a number on her card. "she" bingo'd three times. during the hour and a half I helped her she showed me a picture of her in uniform during WWII and had a heart shaped piece of plexiglass made from an airplane windshield on a chain. that was kept in a medicine bottle in her purse also. she told me it came from the windshield of the plane she and her husband met on during the war. my wife and I are going back over soon and visit with her and take some pics I can post on here. if anyone is interested in sending her a Christmas card, her info is below. lee
