878. A beautiful letter my husband Wayne received from his friend who was in Korea in the war, in 1952.
Today, I am sending a letter back to a dear friend of Wayne's that he had written to Wayne while he was in the Korean war and Wayne was on his mission in Sweden. This friend was my dear husband Wayne's best friend from high school to the end of his life, along with his twin brother Blaine. When Wayne was able to go on a mission to Sweden from 1950 to 1953, Arlen, his friend, had to go into the army and he served in Korea. At that time only 2 young men could go from each ward to serve a mission. All the rest were drafted. The photo below is of Blaine, left, Arlen, and Wayne. They played baseball and other sports together as young teenagers, and were friends forever. Since I have moved up to West Bountiful to live with our son Wayne and his wife, Julie, I have been going through many papers, etc., that I brought with me, but hadn't really gone through. One box included the letters which Wayne's parents had sent to him while he was on his mission in Swede
