This is episode 40 of the Love Sweetie Podcast! This episode features four letters from summer 1945, and the first letter is from Sweetie's husband, Lew, who is writing from England as he is stationed there as part of his service in the United States Navy during World War II. The other three letters are all from Sweetie in Lacona, Iowa. She is staying with her parents during her pregnancy, and describes the day-to-day activities of what is occurring at home that summer and how she feels. In one of the letters, she indicates what she will name her baby when they are born, assuming that the baby is a boy.
Additionally, during this episode we discuss the Battle of Okinawa, as that concludes during the time period of these particular letters.
