Just few lines to let you know

try round about here, SO quiet and
peaceful one feels like he could go TO
sleep here and never wake up.
I'VE had dandy trip over and was
not seasick at all. We were land lub-
bers, most OF us, and all were afraid
that we would get deathly sick. l am
in a rest camp and all have been
doing is to walk. / am SO sore in my
legs, that I can scarcely move. This
place has no officers club SO we 60 to
small taverns and write letters. The
people are very obliging and am now
in the living room Of the inn-keeper
They are very kind people. Here wom-
en- and girls attend to the waiting.
Il hope this letter reaches you. 1t

Over here We do not have those

nothing will ever pry me loose again.
Il am having the time Of my young

There is mo food shortage as rumor
