company B. 3rd army. at Coblenz
Germany. He was formerly with the
s0th division and was transferred to

pany F.
IN his letter he described an old
fort, in which he now lives. which he
has been exploring with great inter
est. He says: 'I have never seen 50
many sights in ny life. There are
storerooms filled with rifles, ammuni-
tion, old bayonets and gas Masks
there are also a number OF cells to be
used Tor prisoners. Gee. I am glad I
was not taken prisoner 20 live IN
such a place as this must have been.
This fort was built about 1910, and
everything is made OF stone. Around
il IS the customary moat that is
found around all forts built in those
days Usually they have a way of
flooding the moat, but this one has
nothing like that, although there is
plenty Of water here, as the Moseiie
and Rhine rivers run together at this
point The old fort sets up on a hill.
ana me only way TO get the water
up into the moat would be 20 pump
II, and there were no pumps IN those
days capable OF forcing water into f.
The moat IS about two or three
stories high, or about 50 feet deep
and 40 feet wide. and runs all the
way around the fort This fort would
take UP the space of about ten city
blocks at home.
The most wonderful sight OF all 10
me is % see Old Glory with her stars
and stripes floating over it and just
across the Rhine from US IS the IA
