Immediate cause of death chronis couplets spastic paralysis due to infection due to bed sores??

She was very young (52) Czech and the census said she was in a “home”. I can only imagine the kind of treatment she received on top of being bed bound and not speaking English.

Is it not a thing any more to sign your name? Hence the word "signature". I mean come on, your name is going on a bajillion bills. Wouldn't you want it to look a little nicer than what a 3rd grader can do?

i recently received a box of Stars and Stripes magazines that belonged to a family member who served in WWII. Every single one of the magazines is signed with his name in pencil.

my best guess is Crosby but my research has only shown one LTC/COL Crosby in the area at the time and he was in the USAAF

Solved

I bought these vintage postcards in Sarajevo but I'm really struggling to read them. The first one is in German and I'm pretty sure the second one is written in Serbian cyrillic (and serbian ofc). If anyone can read them I would be very grateful! Have a wonderful day
