Margaret’s book is Forbidden Family as opposed to Forbidden
Diary. Margaret did not keep a WWII diary. The “Forbidden”
part comes from the nature of her family structure with Jerry
at the time. Jerry was an important civilian employee of the
US Navy and a compelling, heroic, and rogue-ish figure. For
example as a communications engineer he built not one but
two contraband radios while a prisoner of the Japanese.

Ahhhh....OK, now I’m laughing, because I was sitting here thinking “That episode does not happen in this book....this guy is confusing two different books.”

Not too surprisingly....I guess *I’m* the one who is confused :-)
