Vets Help Another Vet

Chicago. - Saving up 81 900 for
a down payment on a house, Larry
Borko, and his wife, Anna, learned
that the VA would not make a
loan on the house unless it was
painted. Borko, handles, veteran,
could not afford to have the paint
ing done or do it himself, having
lost his hands as a Sea-bee on
Okinawa when a Japanese mine
exploded in front of him. Hearing
of his plight, however, Legion
naires, who were painters, twenty
five strong, bearing brushes and
buckets of paint, swarmed over the
house and put on one coat. They
promised to return a week later to
put on the second and do the trim
ming.
