		<description><![CDATA[Tomorrow is the day!  Monday, Jan. 7th&#8212;also it marks completion of 2 ½ years’ service overseas for me.  We have been extremely busy today&#8212;fixing up our French “40 and 8” boxcar so that it is in a livable condition.  It seems likely that we will go to one of these two ports:  either Le Havre [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently sent some pictures home; they are the first of some odds and ends that I must clear out in the next couple of weeks&#8212;it’s a long haul from Germany to Spokane! The Army encourages us to carry only the barest essentials. I won’t have too much trouble in that respect, as I am [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Brrrr! &#8212; after two years in the U.K., I’m no longer used to this kind of climate. Yes indeed, a long, cold winter is in prospect. Long underwear (which most of us seldom wore) will be selling at a premium during these coming months. &#8212; Brrrr!
Now that I’ve set the proper mood, I’ll continue: We [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From all appearances, it looks suspiciously like the war is over and peace is here.  There’s a rumor going around to that effect, at any rate.  I’m still wondering when VJ-Day was – or is!  The last two days have been holidays, that’s all I know for sure.  There are few new newspapers and practically [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s been a long time since I wrote home.  I hope everyone is okay and that everything at home is hunky-dory.  We three boys have been putting in so much time setting up our office and getting settled down here in France.  I wrote one letter to Mom and Dad, one to Cleon, and one [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I received a letter from Cleon on July 24th.  When it comes to “gadding-about”, he appears to be right in there pitching.  Good deal!  I haven’t been doing too badly myself, having gone to Liverpool five of the last seven evenings.  I’ve been a lone wolf these nights because I don’t know anyone at Burtonwood [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The letter that Mom and Dad mailed to Cleon with part of my address on the envelope must have kept the post office department jumping for a good two months! That is what is known as getting a letter “the hard way”. Well, he did eventually get it, and that is something. I hope Mom [...]]]></description>

Two more letters from home were forwarded to me – thanks a lot to Mom and Dad! I’m always glad to hear from home, and it is a special treat when I first arrive [...]]]></description>
