This letter card was sent to my dad in 1949 from a girl he obviously admired. I asked my dad about her and he claimed to not remember! My dad used Zantis until about 1975 when he reverted to Zantiotis.
This letter was sent to my father Stephen, from his cousin, Manolis Koukoulis in 1949. My father laughed hysterically when my mum read it out to him after all these years! Obviously a lot of great memories!

Postcard found in a box of my mothers photos. Does anyone know the year ? (I am guessing earlier than 1970 and the fancy edging tells me a few decades before that?) And what does it say on the back?? John

Continued from page 1 see WW2 Letter from Philip Chlentzos to his brother Peter, Feb 12 1944 (p. 1 of 2)
Philip and Peter Chlentzos were two of the four sons of Diamantis Haralambos Chlentzos and Yiannoula Koulentianos who enlisted in WW2. Philip died in combat on July 27, 1944, from injuries sustained during the invasion of Omaha Beach in France. Philip's letters to his brother have just been rediscovered. I never met my Uncle Phil, but through these letters I have gotten to know him.
My grandfather Diamantis Chlentzos received an honorable discharge from the United States Navy at the age of 95, shortly before his death. My uncle Peter Clentzos wrote a letter of thanks to the Veterans of Foreign Wars. See also Old Letters: United States Congressman requests honorable discharge, p. 1
