Operation Clam-Up

Comments: Several years ago, I found a letter and a picture from an army soldier that was addressed to his parents. The letter was dated Monday, Feb., 10, 1952.

In the letter he writes about the Operation Clam-Up schedule.

He closes the letter with "Lots of Love", Robert and PS - I love you all very much.

I am interested in finding out Robert's last name so that I may locate his family and provide them with this letter.

Thanks! js
