Recently, a postal worker named Alvin Gauthier from Texas discovered a collection of World War II-era letters that had never been delivered to a Jacksonville family. The letters were written by a veteran named Marion Lamb in 1942, and Gauthier stumbled upon them while loading his truck.
Gauthier was amazed to see the date on the envelope and immediately felt a strong desire to get these letters to their rightful owners. After some investigation, he learned that the letters were addressed to “Mr. and Mrs. Henry Lamb” in Jacksonville. Marion Lamb had served in an infantry unit during World War II, and the letters were filled with his experiences and thoughts from that time.
The discovery of these letters has sparked curiosity and interest in uncovering more about Marion Lamb and his connection to the Jacksonville family. Gauthier is determined to ensure that these letters find their way to their intended recipients and hopes that they will be a meaningful reminder of the sacrifices made during World War II.
