Hello Marion,
I ran across your site as I was trying to find a song that my grandfather used to sing to my mother and her best friend when they were little. They can't remember the name of the song, but recalled the lyrics being about a man who marries his "dream woman", and as she starts taking off her make up etc, he realizes she's not so "dreamy". I don't know if it's a WWII song, but thought I would start looking in this era. Does that sound familiar by any chance?
My grandfather, Amos Casada, was a paratrooper in WWII. He was with Co. C, 501st Prcht Infantry, 101st Airborne Division. I saw that people have been posting where they served, or where their families served. If you happen to run across anyone who might have served with my grandfather, I would love to get in touch with them!
Thank you,
Katie White
