The Origin of "Language", Book 24 in Cocker Brothers, May Cocker:
Young May Eloise wants so very badly to attend the co-ed dance, but permission is elusive...until she proves her character is stronger than her teenage years might imply.
It's 1944, the end of World War II, one hopes, and a handsome young submarine planesman, by the surname of Cocker, is on special leave in Georgia, U.S.A. He sure doesn't want to go to some dumb dance but his sneaky brother talks him into it.
And it's a good thing, too, because this is where the Cocker Family began...
