V-Mail Letter from Bill Sheads to his wife, Doris

Description

During World War II, soldiers overseas sent letters home by V-mail. V-mail letters folded into their own envelopes and saved valuable shipping space for war materials. During the war, Delbert [Bill] Sheads wrote to his bride, Doris Hollis, who worked at Fort Belvoir as a typist and secretary while her husband fought in the European Theatre.
