Merry Christmas everyone! I thought might be of interest is this December 1944 Christmas card my Grandfather sent to my mother from the front. He would have been in the Battle of the Bulge at the time. He called my mom "Bobbie" (her name is Barbara). She would have been 4 years old at this time. Of course my grandmother would have read this to her. Last photo of him with mom on his return from the war.
