In this concluding volume, the war in Europe is winding down and at last comes to an end-but there was another war to be fought-in the Pacific. As Ray and Muriel continue with their struggle to meet, they are faced with a seemingly endless array of new obstacles and challenges. In September of 1945 they finally do come together, are married and able to take a brief honeymoon. They were separated again for another seven months-until Muriel made her way over to the States on the U. S. A. T. Henry Gibbins, with a contingent of War Brides, in April of 1946. 87 photos and documents
