We left there on the latter date and
arrived here on October 4th. They
broke up our cavalry at once and put
US in the 9Th Co. 1853 Infantry a week
later. Next we were transferred to the
End Training Battalion of the 65th
Depot Brigrade. The next move we
made was to Co. H. of the 18TH Inf.
and finally most of US were transferred
to the l15th Engineers. l hope the
next move will be across the pond"
and make a final move against the
Germans.
We had fine time Christmas. Had
turkey dinner with lots of trim
mings. then every one received pres
ents and good things to eat from the
home folks. The Red Cross remem-
bered US with Xmas package which
was highly appreciated by every one.
Major General Strong, Commander
of the 40th division gave US all a four
day furlough during Xmas time and
the same again New Years. He is a
fine old man and well liked by every
one. In this branch of the service we
don't have much drilling to do as they
are mostly all mechanics and each one
is put to work at his trade. We have
skilled mechanics of all trades.
One good thing in army life is that
man is never out of job: Follow
ing is a part of our daily routine:
Revellie, a. M; assembly, 6:15 a.
M; BREAKFAST $50 a. M; fatigue, 7:15

supper. Call to quarters is at 9:45 p.
