It is so neat to have that living history right there..next to you...telling you how it was...and at the same time frightening to think that all that knowledge and history is only there in that gray head. One of the local school districts had my mom and some of the other ladies in the American Legion Auxiliary go around to the schools in the district and give personal histories to the students about what part women played here at home during WWII. Mom told them how she helped out as a hired hand to the local farmers. She drove the horses pulling the wagons in the fields while the old farmers forked hay onto a flat rack, or shucked and threw ear corn against the bang board of a flare box wagon. Her dad would hire her and his team out to neigbors that needed an extra "man" in the field 'cuz the "boys" were off to war. All that will be lost when they are gone....:-(
