Message 1 - Chewing Gum

Posted on: 28 February 2004 by Derek Palmer

Check with your mum if she is still around, and I expect she'll confirm that it was to the American GIs, rather than the Canadian servicemen, that she directed her request: "Any gum chum?" Check my story with the title of the same name and read more about this aspect of your mother and my own childhood wartime experience if you are interested.
