Recall the camaraderie and valor of our World War II troops, with this authentic "short snorter" note! Soldiers and sailors traveling together carried these fascinating pieces on their tours, asking people they met along the way to sign them. As each note filled, more would be taped end to end. Longer short snorters meant free drinks at the bar, as the person with the shortest had to buy a round!
