During World War II, the American Red Cross Clubmobile corps (shown here on an airfield in England in 1943) provided donuts, coffee and friendly conversation to the troops.AP Many of us baby boomers grew up with World War II as a felt, if silent, presence.The fathers of my childhood friends served in the Air Force, the Army and my own dad in the Navy on a destroyer escort, but we kids knew of their war mostly through a few black-and-white photos, or the foreign coins that rattled in their dresser drawers.
