When the Acree family of Ann Arbor decided to help win the war, it didn't hold back any punches. All three brothers -- William Hally Acree, 28 years old, Hugh Miller Acree, 18, and Elick Hagan Acree, 21, who appear in that order in the above photograph -- enlisted together in the Navy. They have left for the Great Lakes naval training station to begin the training which will prepare them for roles in sea battles with the Japs and Nazis.
