Mr. and Mrs. Wayman E. Fincham on Thanksgiving as four of their sons return to their home in Silver Spring, Maryland for the holiday.
They had six sons in WW II. Five of the brothers joined the Coast Guard and the other enlisted in the Army.
The oldest brother was overseas, and the youngest was in training. Mr. and Mrs. Fincham "proudly displayed" six stars in the window of their home to tell the world that their sons were "fighting for freedom."
