    Wonderful over-heads! Thank you so much for this wonderful presentation.
    My father was 'stationed' in Minnesota, building dams to make those beautiful lakes in Minnesota. We visited several of them when I was about 16; how I wish I had payed more attention. I have his photographs and some of his papers, but now cannot wait to go to the National Archives II for even more information!
    Thank you again. Helen
