A CROTON CHRISTMAS: WW II
Welcome to Everything Croton, (while the New One is down) a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.
At the 2012 Pearl Harbor ceremony held in Croton (click on the link to see some photos: http://everythingcroton.blogspot.com/2012/12/photos-2012-pearl-harbor-remembrance.html) we got to chatting with a veteran about what "wartime Christmases" were like in the village. That inspired the Elves to create this post: Click on the scans below. The Sol Gerstein ad is sliced in two for easier viewing.
