Why read it?
1 author picked Letters from Uncle Dave as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is not only the story of a young American serving in WWII, it's a family story about what happens when that MIA or KIA telegram arrives. And how it permeates through the family when the family member is never found and the family is left in limbo, dealing with an ambiguous loss and unresolved grief that even affects more generations.
Because my Grandma Leora lost three sons during WWII, I can relate to the not knowing, as for one of the brothers, only God knows where his remains lie today.
It is encouraging to read about the author's trips…
From Joy's list on research of World War II casualties.
