Here is some war era stuff. First, some Japanese Yen that my grandfather Jerry Richard brought home. I scanned it against the current 1000 Yen note, which is worth roughly 10 dollars CDN. The current 1 yen is now a small coin that feels like it's made out of really low-grade aluminum. How things change.



And Grandpa's supply book, with a photo of Joan, Anne-Marie (Am) and Norman Richard stapled into it.
