Dear Wanda: A Memoir of World War II is a very personal account of Onan Hill's life for four years in the military from 1942 to 1946. This long letter was written specifically for his wife and four children. So, it is sometimes intimate. The narration covers his enlistment in the Signal Corps and his work as a radio operator in Hawaii, his transfer to the Army Air Corps, and his training as a cadet to become a Navigator and eventually a Mickey Operator, a radar navigator, the one who does the bombing when there is an undercast. He survives a combat tour, returns to the States and washes out of pilot school, takes a refresher course and navigates C-54s across the Pacific. He is separated from the service as a Captain and undergoes a \let down\ from four years of living with men only and then goes off to college.
