Eye Witness To History:

WWII Veteran, retired Store Manager Jim Sivelle witnessed Japan's historic surrender.

The following was sent out by Jeff Paige after he came across an article about Jim Sivelle - a JCPenney Century Club Member and retired Store Manager out of San Bernardino,. CA.

I am forwarding an article about Jim Sivelle, Century Club member and WWII Veteran of the Pacific Theater. As you will read, Jim was witness to the surrender of the Japanese on the battleship U.S.S. Missouri in 1945 while he was stationed on the U.S.S. Detroit anchored next to the Missouri. It's interesting reading!

 

Jim will turn 100 years old on February 27, 2026. It would be great for you to email him and recognize his service in WWII and his witness to this historic event. His wife's email is labradley2012@aol.com.  CLICK  H E R E  TO READ ARTICLE.

​WELCOME!

​

First and foremost, we are a social club based in Southern California.  The only commonality is that all of our members have worked for JCPenney. Joining the HCSC Alumni club is a lot of fun.  It is a chance to "build on" or continue associations that first developed in the workplace.  No matter what team you were a member of, relationships can now be nurtured in the relaxed enviornment of of this group and its many social activities. Our only qualification is that you worked for JCPenney, regardless of your position and left "standing tall".  Our first year membership is FREE and allows you to see what we are all about.

 

The club stands for having a great amount of comradery with a heavy measure of fun.  We usually plan four 'get together' events a year starting with our Spring Fling in Palm Springs, held in mid-February.  We follow that up with a late Spring, early Summer Event, a Fall Event, and end the year with our traditional Christmas party.  Attendance to the events is not required, but we highly encourage you to drop in on one or two events throughout the year as schedules permit.  Many of our events are available to those attending for the first time "free".
