My Father in Clarksville, Arknansas During WWII Studying Radio.


 After having served ab out a year as a radar technician, dad went back to training to become a radioman.  He had spent some time in Chicago at Herzl colleg, and then moved on the Clarksville for more advanced study.  This was 1944.  Dad and another sailor had to repeat the course but he did graduate as a radioman.  From here he would continue to study radio at Treasure Island in San Francisco.

Arkansas 2019: Our Last Picture of Grandpa Pohlsander

 Grandpa Pohlsander passed away in May of 2022.  The last time we visited him he was full of stories about WWII and Germany.  Some of the stories I have put on family search. https://www.familysearch.org/en/tree/person/memories/LF3C-9WW

He sat and talked for some time.  When we first pulled up, Grandma saw Sheri and said "Oh my favorite daughter."  But then thought she was Elizabeth.  Unless she recognized her as her daughter.
