Even though “care package” has become part of the lexicon as a box of goodness sent by a loved one, the name began as an acronym for the Cooperative for American Remittances to Europe. CARE packages were first delivered in 1946 and were the centerpiece of a massive humanitarian initiative to address post-World War II suffering and starvation. bit.ly/4ziGOBl

The organization began as the Cooperative for American Remittances to Europe, and it became a way for those in need to receive food, clothing and other necessities. It continues to aid people today

On a June evening in 1994, an audience of more than 14 million people tuned in to watch Charles, then the Prince of Wales, confess to infidelity while married to Diana, the Princess of Wales. The confession came about an hour into a nationally televised documentary about the future King. Among those not watching the broadcast was the Princess of Wales herself. She was, instead, attending a gala for the Serpentine Gallery, in Kensington Gardens, of which she had become a patron. And she was wearing the dress that would come to be known as her “revenge dress.” “After years of wordlessly revealing her misery through her unmissable weight loss, hunched posture, and occasional tears, Diana materialized that evening in a different form: potent and gleaming,” Rebecca Mead writes. The dress will be offered in a special auction in December, after an exhibition tour through London, Hong Kong, and Geneva. Read more about the dress’s afterlife: newyorker.com/culture/the-le…

Bob Woodward has spent decades getting insiders to divulge their secrets. In his new memoir, George Packer writes, the legendary journalist reveals his methods—but little of himself: theatlantic.com/magazine/202…

Works Progress Administration posters promoting parks, art and literacy, and war propaganda are perhaps the most well-known of the 2,000+ that were made. Here are a few lesser-known examples from the Library’s collection of more than 900 posters, which is the largest anywhere in the world.

It’s National Donut Day! During WWI, the Salvation Army’s “Donut Lassies,” women volunteers who baked and delivered donuts to soldiers on the front lines, became so popular that they had their own song! Donuts became a theme of Salvation Army fundraising efforts, like this 1922 "donut race" in D.C.
Don't Forget the Salvation Army (My Doughnut Girl) sheet music. Cover features an illustration of a "Doughnut Girl" holding a bucket full of doughnuts. Inside page features the sheet music for the song. Library of Congress WWI sheet music collection.

Today is Ask A Conservator Day! We are commonly asked, "What does a NARA conservator do in a day?" Here's one example: Watch how this dress from the @Ford_Library, owned by First Lady Betty Ford, was prepared to be on display at the National Archives Museum. #AskAConservator

My favorite line from the musical Suffs, about the women's suffrage movement, is "Progress is possible, not guaranteed." We can stem the damage of Trump and put our country back on the path to possibility. Here's your get-out-the-vote soundtrack. youtube.com/watch?v=YQxsbcOa…
