A native of Ohio, Private Luis Felicia (1911-2008) was stationed in recreation at the Overseas Replacement Depot (ORD) during World War II. As head of Service Club #1, he performed in shows for the soldiers and provided dance instruction. After the war, he remained in Greensboro as a dance instructor and owner of Felicia Studios of Dance. This collection consists of photographs and printed material relating to his wartime service and post-war career, but only material relating to the ORD has been digitized. The photographs document daily life and recreational activities on the military base, as well as a visit by First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt, while the printed material includes copies of news clippings, ephemera, and an original 1945 base telephone directory.
