Helene’s son Harry received his Honorable Discharge from the U.S. Army on November 1, 1945 while recuperating from a tropical illness at Mitchell Convalescent Hospital at Camp Lockett in California.
In the October 12th and 13th posts, we saw two letters from Harry while he was at the hospital.
In earlier letters, Harry anticipated being stationed in the South Pacific until well into 1946. He and his sister Eva must have been grateful that he was discharged earlier and now could help get their mother to the U.S. from Istanbul, where she had been stuck for months.
