"May 6, 1944 Dearest Darling, All day I have been fighting the feeling which has been dominating me of late. I keep continually thinking of home and longing for home in the worst way. All your letters of how beautiful my daughter is becoming by the day. The realization that I am missing all these months and years of her formative growth is actually gnawing at my heart. . . . I love you, Frank"
This letter is a letter home and its about how much he misses his family and how he misses his daughter. The battle has taken a toll on him and hes wanting it to end so he can go home and watch he daughter grow up. He thought about how much time he has missed with his daughter and wonders how shes become.
This is World War 2 propaganda. Its trying to get you to buy war bonds. The image is of a aryian boy putting on a nazi hat. This is saying that if you don't buy war bonds than you're child will become a Nazi. Its its saying that if you don't want your children to grow up as Nazis than buying war bonds will prevent that.
"2nd Lt Jack Lundberg Lead navigator, US air force, from Woods Cross, Utah May 19 Dear Mom, Pop and family, Now that I am actually here I see that the chances of my returning to all of you are quite slim, therefore I want to write this letter now while I am yet able. I want you to know how much I love each of you. You mean everything to me and it is the realisation of your love that gives me the courage to continue. Mom and Pop - we have caused you innumerable hardships and sacrifices - sacrifices which you both made readily and gladly that we might get more from life. I have always determined to show my appreciation to you by enabling you both to have more of the pleasures of life - but this war has prevented my doing so for the past three years. If you receive this letter I shall be unable to fulfil my desires, for I have requested that this letter be forwarded only in the event I do not return. You have had many times more your share of illness and deaths in the family - still you have continued to exemplify what true parents should. I am sorry to add to your grief - but at all times realise that my thoughts are of you constantly and that I feel that in some small way I am helping to bring this wasteful war to a conclusion. We of the United States have something to fight for - never more fully have I realised that. There just is no other country with comparable wealth, advancement or standard of living. The USA is worth a sacrifice! Remember always that I love you each most fervently and I am proud of you. Consider, Mary, my wife, as having taken my place in the family circle and watch over each other. Love to my family Jack"
This letter is to his family and how he believes it will be the final time he will be talking to them. He describes how he believes how this will be the final time they hear from him, and he goes onto talk about how they had a lot of hardships and alto griefing. He apologizes for adding to that grief. He then goes on to explain how this war is worth fighting. Towards the end of the letter he talks about how his wife is now apart of the family and that they should take care of each other. He was killed two and a half weeks after D-Day at the age of 25.
This piece of propaganda is explaining the reasoning for the US to fight. The boot is a Nazi and the church represents religious freedom. They are fighting to prevent the Nazis from destroying religious freedom and to keep freedom alive.
