Sep 27th, 2013 at 10:57:16 PM PDT by

I have never offered GIN on my auctions to give everyone a chance.
I do hope you will forgive me and continue watching.

My memory isn't the best but if it's a topic I love I seem to be able to remember it. WW 2 fascinates me

What is an war rations book

Oct 3rd, 2013 at 6:04:28 PM PDT by

When the war was happening...they had to make these...they used like money. Certain things, like sugar...couldn't be purchased with money...they had to be the ration stamps. Google it...it is history that could repeat itself again possibly.

Hi; fanned watching & ah-biddin (lol) a great site to find out about these War Ration Stamps is http://www.ameshistoricalsociety.org/exhibits/events/rationing2.htm I was borned in 49 so obv. don't remember but my Mother sure did, She was born in 1907 and went through 2 Great Wars and the Depression, I learned a lot of First Hand History from listening to her.

Oct 4th, 2013 at 8:33:28 AM PDT by

That is sooooo kind of you! I do thank you for the info! I wish I had asked my folks so much more than I did!

Oct 4th, 2013 at 11:47:33 AM PDT by

I know a lot of kids think their parents are full of hot air, but I loved to listen to my folks, my Mom had a 2nd cousin that was in the Civil War, and was captured and sent to Camp Sumter Millitary Prison in Andersonville, He was wounded in the leg which developed Gangreen and had to be amputated, they packed it in mud as a dressing and after the war ended him and another young soldier from IL had to walk back to their home in IL. I know that is off the subject but I find it so interesting. Just glad I listened : )

Oct 4th, 2013 at 12:28:42 PM PDT by

Wow....it is unreal how some were treated. My dad was in the Navy...His dad the Army! I was too busy with myself that I just didn't take time to ask questions....now I regret it!
