Hilda Griggs, now 97, was one of the 855 members of that unit, the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, which was tasked with sorting through the two-year backlog of mail intended for service members and other personnel serving in the European theater. The motto of the 6888th wasn’t ambiguous: “No mail, low morale.” “My mother didn’t want me to leave, but I came to Philadelphia and joined,” Griggs told AARP, adding that she was inspired to enlist because she had five brothers in the service and was lonely at home.
