“When I Go Home . . .” wartime ad from Nash in “The Saturday Evening Post,” December 23, 1944. Art by Rico Tomaso.

“The guns fade down . . .

 

“And it seems to me I hear a dog’s sharp bark, and a girl’s voice and the shrill of my own clear whistle . . .

 

“And the next thing I know, I’m over the gate and out of the war and . . . it’s Christmas again and I’m home. . .”
