Cellophane Employees
who Served in WWI
Cellophane Flashes - May 1941
In this time of speed and
more speed for National Defense, we believe that it is fitting and
proper to pause a moment to pay tribute to the men who bore the United
States colors in World War I. On this page Flashes gives you pictures of
eighteen ex-service men, who are employees of Old Hickory
"Cellophane." Most of these pictures were taken over a score
of years ago and the appearance of these men has changed, but not their
spirit.
These ex-service men are
being replaced by a new generation, in active service, but they continue
to do their part in a different capacity. Let all of us, like these men,
resolve to do our part, whether large or small, to the best of our
ability for National Defense. At this time, our job is here. Let's do it
well.
Henry R. Puckett is an
ex-service man, whose picture does not appear on this page. At this time
Henry is out on disability, and we wish him a speedy recovery. If we
have missed anyone, it was unintentional and we offer our apologies. We
would appreciate hearing from you. |
