Sobre IBD

'Frank Love Letters: This Is It.' starts off in May 1944. To recap if you’re just joining, Horgie (my grandpa) and Peachie (my grandma) held on to +300 love letters he wrote to her back home in Toronto, Canada during WW2 while fighting with the Canadian Armed Forces across Europe. Horgie completed his basic training from July-November 1943 and was shipped overseas to a holding unit in the United Kingdom by Christmas of 1943. Two days later their first child was born. Horgie eventually joined the 48th Highlanders of Canada and worked as a sniper and scout, travelling through mostly Italy. Keep in mind my grandparents are in their mid-late 20s at this time and only keeping in touch through mail. This is literally how to get through the dark times in one’s life, how to take care of yourself to the extent possible, stay in a loving relationship and to keep moving forward with courage.
