Taken from the History of Klickitat County, Wash., published by Klickitat County Historical Society in 1982: "After Pearl Harbor, having failed the Navy eye examination, Phillip was inducted into the Army. He served in the Army Air Force as a vehicle mechanic. After a year's training he shipped overseas on the Queen Mary, with 17,000 others, to Scotland. He was sent to southeast England to an area which later became known as "Buzz Bomb Alley" because of the hundreds of V-1 bombers which flew over on their way to London. While there he met Betty Leach, the seventh of nine children of Ernest E. and Minnie Leach. They were married Feb. 14, 1945 in the beautiful old church at Earle's Colne, Essex. Their first son, Andy, was born on May 1, 1946, in Colchester, Essex, England. Phillip stayed on until Andy was born, then shipped to New York, on the "Sheepshead Bay Victory," and was discharged at Fort Lewis on July 7, 1946."
Why is it that at class reunions you feel younger than everyone else looks?
