The Snapshots in Time Collection
Gallery: Part 7
Envelopes and letters from the Moon-Sammet collection trace the correspondence of Pfc Ross Moon of the 11th Airborne Division, writing from APO addresses in the Pacific and occupied Japan to Marianne Sammet in Richmond, California. Airmail cancellations, typed marginal jokes, and a lyric sheet for the airborne ballad "Blood on the Risers" preserve both longing and barracks humor.
