    1942 Post Card from North Africa

    I have a small collection of naval ship cancellations and found this post card at a small stamp show. Major C.L. Nelson was in the II Corps which was defected with very heavy casualties at Kasserine Pass in Feb 1943.

    Also interesting is that Nelson's Flower Shop is still on Broad St in Grove City PAAttachment 87820Attachment 87821

    I thought they were not allowed to tell anyone where they were.

    Grove City, PA is not too far from me.
    I wonder if those folks are still alive?
