In this Week 47 of the ZAPFic50 Friday, the prompt "crew" brought thoughts of the awesome socks that are a necessity in my wardrobe. I decided to check out the background of this ingenious foot accessory that's worn by generations since its invention.
Below is my story:
Would-be robbers targeted a neighborhood store in the 1940s.
Unfortunately, Kelly and some members of his gang, wearing their bizarre medium size white socks that rose between the ankle and knee, were there.
Kelly foiled their efforts.
A reporter hailed them as crew heroes.
Their socks: they became famous crews.

That's a good known history created.
They will be forever remembered.
And their outfit are outstanding.
The screenshot though is showing 7 words and 38 characters.
There must have been a mix-up somewhere.
Hello. Thanks so much for your visit. So happy you learned a bit. Let me check the screenshot.
Yes, I did.
Thank you very much for sharing.
And thank you for bringing my screenshot to attention. That was weird. I input it again into the program and received the correct information. So strange this occurred as it was correct when I captured the shot.
Have a good Sunday.
You are welcome.
Such things do happen.
Do enjoy the rest of your day.
