Woodrow Lee Cook
Kentucky Post, Friday, 24 December 1948, page 1
FLYING HOME-There was special word Thursday for 25 year old Woodrow Cook, 409 Dayton Pike, Campbell county that made his Christmas very, very Merry. It was that his English wife, Mrs. Glenys Cook will be one of four and possibly five GI brides to leave London Friday by plane for the United States. They were married May 24, 1946 in Warrington, England, near where Mr. Cook was serving as a sergeant at Boone Air Deport No 1 of the Air Service Command. They had gone together most of the 18 months he was stationed there.
On June 20, 1946, the groom left for the United States to terminate three years military service. Since that time Mrs. Cook has delayed her trip to this country because of the serious illness of her mother. Meanwhile she worked at a hotel at Aberstwyth, a summer resort area. Mrs. Cook's home is at Treddol, Machynlleth, North Wales England. She served as a member of the British WAAFs during the war. Her husband is an employee of the Watson & Wenderoth grocery store, 403 Sixth avenue Dayton.
The group flying from London Friday will end the migration of service men's dependents from Britain numbering more than 52,000.
