WARTIME ROMANCES "Who Wants to be Good?"

We've told several tales about how military service often spells "doom" to romantic relationships...

...here's one that ends with a wedding in the near future...but with an unexpected twist!

This never-reprinted tale from St John's WarTime Romances #18 (1953) presents the, thankfully discredited, concept that a woman finishing her education and being married are incompatable!

Next week:

We haven't decided yet what it'll be, but we can guarantee that...

You'll Cry Your Eyes Out if You Miss It!

(You will! Really!)
