Wonderful success! Sent Aug 13, 2015 and received Aug 27, 2015. Mendonsa (92 years old) signed an 11x14 and an 8x10 I sent him. Asked him to write the date/location/his rank on the photo and he did a beautiful job! He also wrote a note "I don't know where or when but your last name sounds very familiar to me" and signed that too.
Time published this great video they day after I sent this out. I didn't even realize I was sending a day before the 70th anniversary of the photo!
