    London, Edinburgh, Paris - Recommendations Please

    In London you absolutely MUST add Churchill's War Rooms. Brilliant place -just like stepping back in time, Harrod's not so much.

    Stateside funerals in the WW2 era?

    Many soldiers, like my Uncle, were killed overseas and buried there. Then the family had the option to have them returned to the states for reburial after the war. My uncle was reburied in WV in 1948, so there may have been fewer military funerals during the war than you might think.

    Yesteryear, Your work is really amazing - a true passion. I do civilian homefront reenactment at Reading each year and would love to get a small portable record player like in your last photo. do they turn up on Ebay or other place reasonably? Thanks, Sharpsburg

    Could someone tell me why my post was deleted? What rule did I violate by welcoming back a long lost poster? There is little enough activity in this forum to delete a simple greeting.

    Bravo! The "ignore user" command resolves all troubles with one Stanley Doble. I feel better now.

    Miss America : Standards of American Beauty over the Years

    Yah! My thought exactly. The feminists were stupid enough to believe that women are more than just how big their cup size is and how well they can twirl a baton in high heels! Pageants are dinosaurs that need to be hit by meteors until they die out.

    Thanks for sharing that, Lizzie. I had not heard. Considering the sorry state of journalism today, we can really appreciate the heavy lifting done by the pioneers, est. the Morrows boys.

    BOARDWALK EMPIRE (HBO) - Everything you wanted to bootleg about the Show!

    Giving Gillian to the Commodore was Nucky's original sin. In the end it killed him, made Gillian mad and made Jimmy's son a murderer, just like dad. Sad, but not unexpected. What goes around, comes around for Nucky. Sad to see a great series go. Sharpsburg

    I am not 100% convinced Chalky is dead. We did not see it happen so I cannot give up hope that Narcisse's hit men were bought by someone else. A girl can hope!

    do you wash your hair everyday?

    I used to wash every other day, but now I am at that "time of life" where I am almost too afraid to wash much at all. It is falling out by the handful! I'm seeing a doctor about rogaine, or something! Nobody warned me about this!

    Your Most-Often-Consulted Reference Books?

    I don't know if you would consider it a "reference" book, but as a civilian reenactor I turn MANY times to my trusty 1943 Sears Catalog! You can learn all manner of things about life of the "average" every-day woman or man with the Sears catalog. Many books about 194os life focus on...
