Had this for a while now, but I don't think I've shown it here;


Found it in a misc. box lot I purchased at a local stamp show a few months back.

It had no cover - was just loose in the bottom of the box.

I thought it might be interesting for others to read!

re: Soldier's Letter Home

I did some research soon after I found it;


Carson McClain Borror
Born October 29 1903 in Indiana
Died January 27 1981
Buried in Masonic Memorial Park - West Union, Doddridge Co., West Va.


According to a 1930 census, he was listed as a telephone company switchman that year.

He was enlisted in the US Army from Feb. 10, 1941 to April 1, 1953 and exited as Lt.Col.

He married Loxie Lee Dotson(b.2/23/1908 - d.1/14/1979) on June 16, 1926

He had a sister - Hazel, born in 1908 and a brother - Walter Leon, born 1/12/1916

They had one child - Barbara Lee Borror, b.3/22/1927 - d.7/19/2012


That's about all I've found so far.
