Air Force Engineer: John Harper Sproule, Jr. - Letters, College to 1963 - 6720

Air Force Engineer takes form as a biographical compilation of letters informing the education and early career experiences of John Harper Sproule, Jr. (1918-1997). With just a few exceptions, the letters are addressed to Katherine Veronica [Glenn] Sproule, the sweetheart and eventual wife of JHS. The letters not only flesh out the vicissitudes of their long-term and long-distance relationship but also convey a portrait of middle-class life in the 1930s and 1940s, particularly those years when the two were living separately (1937-1942). Here we find a panoply of quotidian life—amusements, living quarters, mass media consumption, jobs, and people beginning with the Depression and extending through World War II and the Cold War.
