I've received some comments that posting the wartime ( WWII ) letters from Raymond M. Raykovitz has allowed at least one reader to get to know Ray as a person instead of just a picture on the wall, a few photos and some stories.
Well, I think we're going to learn a lot more about Raymond as I go through the next few posts detailing some of the hundreds of comments written by his fellow classmates at GAR Memorial High School in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania - Class of 1941. Evidently, Ray was a very good baseball player, had a flair for having fun, and ummmm, had quite a few nicknames.
So stay tuned as we get a glimpse of the teenager known as Rakey, Slick and the "Wolf."
In the photo directly above, the future (Aunt) Florence (Adams) Raykovitz - and her comment signed "Flossie" - are in the upper left corner of the page.
