Coming home from Korea and meeting his eight month old daughter is a story Mr. Flett shares, reality of war as life goes on!
Transcription
Coming home from Korea was quite an experience. My wife was pregnant when I left and she hadn’t been away from home that much prior to that so I’m going to be away for at least ten or twelve months and made arrangements that she could go home to her parents and she would have the child while I was away. So that was an understanding we made before I left and it worked out well. My oldest daughter who is with me was born while I was in Korea and she was eight months old when I got home. And so my wife stayed in Winnipeg until I came home and then I got leave and I joined her in Selkirk, her home. Here I am coming home a conquering hero from the Korean War and not a soul out there to meet me but an eight month old baby daughter waiting at home for me so that was quite a homecoming.
