March 2004 - Summer of ´45: And All Creation Rejoiced - William Phillips

"Let Your Heart Come Home" to Phillips Bay

It is the Fourth of July, 1945 and the celebration is even more significant this year
– the war in Europe has ended. As a country, everyone hopes and prays that
the war in the Pacific will come to a quick conclusion. A young boy and girl
sit on the front lawn with their faithful companion and enjoy the fireworks
in the town below. These children symbolize the post-war hope that perhaps
soon all would live in peace. In the distance a thunderstorm, the

“cloud of war,” begins to move away. High in the sky overhead a civilian
version of the new Lockheed Constellation ushers in a new era of
peacetime air transportation.
