The journaling reads:
Dad sent this map to Grandma. On it he marked “his travels while in service.” He enlisted on 12/27/1944 and first went to Great Lakes Naval Training Center, IL. His next assignments were Norman, OK; Shoemaker, CA; USS Sanders; and USS LST 605. He was then transferred to the USS Avery Island, where he participated in Operation Crossroads in the Bikini Islands. He then was assigned to Washington, DC, where he met and married Mom. He received an Honorable Discharge on 2/5/1948, and the family headed home to Nebraska.
