Description
Pvt. Cohaig Assadourian, a clerk in the Processing Center at Dow Air Field, mails a late Christmas parcel to her husband stationed in Germany, S/Sgt. Frank Assadorian, as mail clerk S/Sgt. Peter C. Mulligan looks on. Although the deadline for overseas Christmas packages was in mid-October, if a soldier requested a parcel, it could still be sent--although there was no guarantee it would arrive by Christmas.
