tivin, isadore

Isadore Tivin was from Venture, Cali and he died at 90 years old in 1997.

Oddly enough, I haven't heard of this before but Tivin served in the Brunete Campaign. However, he was sent home after he got the typhus fever. Which is such a depressing way to go home.

In the folder there's a letter sent by Tivin to the National Commander of the VALB asking Steve to remove 5 people in control of the VALB papers because they were using the papers for their own purposes/priorities. (I didn't really understand this but whatevzzz).

In the letter he states that at the VALB Conferences in NY in 1979, a man by the name of Gabby Rosenstein, slandered all the vets saying he was a McCarthy in his own way. Rosenstein was the Secretary of the LA Post.

So this was all that was there and upon examination, I feel like this was a good folder because it showed that the vets were still involved with the VALB causes even after the Spanish Civil War.
