Did your dad get to see FDR? If so, did you ever hear any comments about FDR?
It’s a shame there was so much thievery going on. To get $45 bucks stolen has to be a staggering blow.
I suspect he would have mentioned it if he had actually seen the president instead of just getting extra duty out of the visit. I never heard anything else about the event. FDR's visit must have been part of his 2-week tour of war industry plants from Sept. 17 to Oct. 1. That is the subject of the lead article on Oct. 2. His itinerary is not described.
