This story is an account of events in the lives of two brothers of solid Minnesota farm stock, and their sole living relative, an elderly maid and heiress to the Herjolfsson family estate.The brothers had returned from World War II having served in the Royal Canadian Air Force as decorated combat pilots. Now far from the daily excitement and grandeur, that of dashing Air Force pilot officers they were seen by prim Aunt Julia as wallowing about in a state of affairs lacking in any show of the kind of gumption true to their ancestry.Embarrassed by the blight they had placed on the family name Julia agonized over a method to get her beloved nephews back on track.
