| | | | The pictures below show larger views of this 1949 Officer’s Club Navy Building Boston Massachusetts Farewell Party Song Booklet. We do not know if the woman was being transferred, promoted, was moving, or retiring, just that she was leaving where ever she was working. The booklet was mimeographed, surely so that everyone could have and use one for singing at this party. Shown is the cover and a random sample song page. The cover has a wreath and is marked as follows: FAREWELL PARTY TO
MARY R. COLE
OFFICER’S CLUB
NAVY BUILDING
BOSTON, MASS.
DECEMBER 7, 1949 The booklet has many typed lyrics of songs. Some at the beginning (ones with an asterik (*)) have some altered words to include this “Mary” woman’s name, or things about her. Looking at some of the references, she worked at “USNRAO” or “NRAO”. We do not know what the abbreviation stands for. If you know, please let us know. The songs included are as follows: (*) MARY

(*) HOME ON THE RANGE
