I just can’t believe how unfortunately James Black’s story ended. He survived all of World War 1, signed up a day after World War 2 was declared, made it all the way to 1945, then died of phenomena and cardio-renal decease in London Ontario. He was already 52 when he signed up to head overseas which I found interesting. I had looked at a lot of other people and most of them were born during WWI so I decided to incorporate that into my story. I found on other documents the names of his wife and children so I wanted to bring them into the letter in some way. I also found his signature so I photoshopped it in for Realism. In the end it worked out and the letter seems to have a realistic tone to it. At least in my opinion.
(It may just be me but I feel like this paragraph is better when you read it like a annoyed/angry Charlie Day)
These are the documents I used to make the letter realistic.
