The Threat of German Bombs - [Dec 14, 1942]
-
Narrated by:
-
Written by:
Mattie's in a Christmas play. She's a shepherd! And that's just one of many things she has going on.
We are joined by Jesse Buetow, Hans' brother and Steve's son, as we hear Mattie turn her letters into her daily diary. She has car trouble, cold trouble, and mom trouble, but she gets it all handled. There's a visit from a cousin. And another cousin. In a dramatic turn, Wes announces, to Mattie's consternation, that he wants to leave for California, and Mattie sells her hat, literally off her head.
Plus, there's a huge air raid drill, and we discuss the rationality of Minnesotans being afraid of being bombed during the war.
