Dale Story Home

The first time home after nearly two years in the service Dale Story, U. S. M, C., arrived arrived Tuesday night to see his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Story and his sisters and brothers. Dale, who will celebrate his 20 birthday this week, had nothing to say except, “I am glad to be home”; his parents can be justly proud of him. On his blouse is pinned the Purple Heart, two ribbons for action in the South Pacific and American Theatres of War and two Strs for action in Guadalcanal and Tarawa-grim reminders that he has been in the thick of war and could tell many a tale. His brother Leonard gave his life in the service of his country. Dale will report for duty at the end of his furlough.
