The collection consists of 12 V-mail letters written to and collected by George “Geo” Hennessey between 1943 and 1944. The letters are written to both Geo and his wife, Peg, who were living in Brooklyn, New York at the time. The correspondents include Peg’s brothers Lyle Claussen, Harry Claussen and an undecipherable name that could be “Kermit” Claussen, as well as Imrie Anderson. The letters discuss daily life in the war as well as commentary on news from the homefront.
