I have always loved the story behind the Hollywood Canteen and have toyed myself with putting a post together about it, but yours was fantastically done so I don't need to. <br /><br />I am in the last pages of Lauren Bacalls autobiography and she talks about her time at the Canteen and how she enjoyed meeting the soldiers and helping out. It was great reading about all the others who did the same.<br /><br />Great post :)The Vintage Inn Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01264242179932590301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6640692417598745448.post-25774788551598271642014-07-02T18:06:18.694-07:002014-07-02T18:06:18.694-07:00Thank you Shady Del Knight.

Yes, we are divided, but I am ever hopeful that things will turn around for the better.

It was great to see all those stars including two of my favorite actresses, Lana Turner and Deanna Durbin, a boyish Frank Sinatra, John Garfield, Bette Davis, Dinah Shore, Red Skelton, Durante and all the others. Reading this post and watching that clip brought tears to my eyes because it reminds me that we were once a nation united and today we are a house divided against itself. Thank you, Rachel!Shady Del Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03839935472941264414noreply@blogger.com
