We will be here 10 days or more. Staying at the Wis. Hotel in connection with the Dr. Bill did not have to leave today. Is to have a recall real soon. He is home waiting where he did last year..."The mention of "Bill" expecting a "recall real soon" is a likely reference to military service recall, a common anxiety during the ongoing war in the Pacific in June 1945.Scene: Features the scenic Milwaukee skyline as seen from Juneau Park.
