The video was produced by Sue Nass, a television writer and producer in Idaho. The narrator of the script was Jack Hemingway, the son of the author, Ernest Hemingway.

In 1994, the video, Bomber Boys was filmed. The video gives the story of the 29th Bomb Group as well as the larger 314th Bomb Wing.

"Although I grew up listening to my Dad's experiences in the war, the very process of the "formal" television interview opened new dimensions to my relationship with him. It was several hours of the most touching, heart-rending and revealing moments I've ever shared with my Dad. I'll always treasure the time together we had on this project." -Sue Nass, Producer/Writer

Foreward

The occasion for this booklet is the presentation, on Feb. 4th, 1946, of awards to Senior and Junior Hostesses of the USO at Pratt and to those organizations in the city and county which have aided so materially in helping the USO do its job.

The decision to issue this pamplet was not made in time for the USO office to check its hostess lists as carefully as it would like to have done. Because of the rush in arranging lists of those who helped there may be errors of omission. It is hoped these will be few.
The compiler of this data is indebted to the Pratt Daily Tribune for the use of its files and for other assistance graciously given.
