That someone's thoughts go where you go. That someone never can forget. The hours we spent since first we met. That life is richer, sweeter far. For such a sweetheart as you are. And now my constant prayer will be. That God may keep you safe for me.") featuring patriotic art of a bald eagle clutching an American flag with war imagery in the background. These pillows shams were available at PX (Post Exchange) stores on military bases during World War II and they would often have the name of the base at the bottom (this one does not). Soldiers would pick out an appropriate style of sham and send them home to their sweethearts and loved ones. If anyone knows more about this, please e-mail us and we will post it here.
