1942-1945 Joseph M. Fisher World War II scrapbook

Description: Scrapbook compiled by Fishers mother, Vanchie, about her sons experience in the Army during WWII. The scrapbook is made up primarily of letters from Fisher to his parents, which were written from December 1942 until October 1945, with the bulk of the letters occurring between January 1943 and August 1945. The letters content is primarily discussion about family matters, events in Muncie and news about Fisher in the military. Other materials included in the collection are mementos sent home by Fisher that were not fastened to the scrapbook, inserts from envelops containing allotment checks and newspaper clippings Joseph had sent home.
