SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE

Dear Mother: How are you? This
leaves me we'll. | will try and tell
you about my trip over to France.
We left Camp Mills, New York
August 22, 1918. We were not on the
ship long until we were out of sight
from America. 1t seemed to me we
sailed on the broad Atlantic waves
quite a while We could see other
ships and large body of water was
all we could see for days. 1t was
great sight to see the sun rise and
set on the ocean At sun rise it looked
like the sun was coming up out of
the water, | could almost see the
water dripping off, ha, ha! AT sunset
it looked like the sun was shining in
the sea- | can't describe the clouds
and everything as it looked to me. |
just wished you could have seen it.
We had the time of our lives going
over On Sept. 3rd, our ship landed
lat Brest, France We were sure glad
to see land again. We went out to
rest camp. | am not allowed to say
where we are located. When we tell
|of moving from one camp to another
the Censor cuts it out
France is a fine country, in some
places, altho it has an old appearance.
Most all of the buildings are made of
stone or brick. In some places the
ground is we'll kept it looks like flow
err gardens. They have fine roads here
with shade trees on each side of the
road. They are not dusty either. You
can tell which way the hoads lead
by the long line of tall trees on each
side of the road just as far as one
can see. They would be fine for an
automobile ride. In some parts of
France you can see great fields of
peoples and other wild flowers grow
ing. | could tell you lot more if |
had time.
