Dear Dad and Brother:-
Have not heard from either of you
in a long time, Can't you find time to
write a couple of lines month? you
know mail here IS avery welcome arti-
Gle.
Have not had truck for some time
and have not been around much ex-
cept to move when the whole battalion
went, but when most of the company
went I'D to the first lines to wire
them and the out posts and listening
posts was left behind with about 4
dozen others. Altho' in range of the
small artillery it is not at all like the
FIRST lines. We have men nearer the
German trenches than any other out
fit in this sector and it is large
one. They are on the most dangerous
outposts, and Dad I didn't get a
chance to go When the captain call
ed the names of the men to go on
outpost duty he told them they didn't
have to go il they didn't want to and
asked each man." Do you want to go?
Every one said, yes. There was not
a coward in the company.
And now the battalion moves back
from the front and don't think III
ever see what it looks like for you see
we are up here doing the work of q
field battalion that could not handle
the job. We are not supposed to work
in the war zone except in case of
necessity, SC guess I'm out of luck
cause there is a drive due here in a
couple of days and we are moving
back away.
Lord! how I'd like to be with the
details that stay Have you noticed
that almost two-thirds of the men that
get medals are those working on tele-
phones or the lines, even if most of
them are buried.
Thousands and thousands of pieces
of artillery are along the roads on a
stretch of just few miles, not count
ing the big ones scattered all thru the
woods. They have been coming by here
all night long for weeks. When they
open up it will be like the eruption
of whole mountain range. 1t would
seem if one were to explode, all the
country would be blown up. they are
so close together.
