My, my how times have changed. As we fight in two wars at this time, no one is asked to give up anything. In fact we were asked to spend money to keep the economy going. I deplore our commercial ways of living today. As the mother of a son who served in both Afghanistan and Iraq I wish there was some sense of being in this together as a nation. I don't agree with the politics that got us into these wars, but my heart goes out to the families of those that are serving. As one of them, I know how much sacrifice takes place, and I do not see the country as being one with that. Okay off my bandwagon. Thanks so much for posting this bit of American ephemera.Sassy Lassies Vintage Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05537761367611783397noreply@blogger.com
