Dear Martin,
We are o ready for action and
that Is what we have been waiting
for ever since we landed on his side
of the big pond. We feel something
like the colored lad who said, Man,

dangerous and know It. than be in q
place where II Is dangerous and not
know It,"
Amboy may have seemed like a
small place to US when we were home
but when we read how 10 done so
well in Liberty Bonds and Red Cross
work. II makes us feel proud to think
that we came from a place like that.
I do not remember when I have felt
so happy and enjoyed life so much
because I am doing my bit TO win the
war. The worst of it is nearly over
now by the looks OF things.
Your friend.

Letter from Private Joseph Lynch

Dear Mother,
While out taking a walk the other
day. 1 stopped to watch some China
men work and 1 got talking to the
soldiers who had charge of them and
one of them told me hat there was
a man In their company from Perth
Amboy.
So last night / went over to the av-
iation field to see who 1t was and |
found Charlie Sheppard. We had
quite some sport talking over old
times and Charlie said he was In
Paris when the Huns bombarded the
city and he had quite a few interest
ing stories to tell.
l have met a good many Amboy
men over here and it certainly is like
old times when you see them.
Your loving son.

BY skillf4l maneuvers he enabled his
observer to fire bursts at each machine
