1942 Post: Now we know where Bud was yesterday when they expected him for work. This must have been quite a shock to Grama and Grampa to have their boy volunteer for the military. He was 20 years old.

1943 Post: Bud is obviously away from home in Army training. Still safe but soon to be in the war.
