Somewhere, Nov. %, 1918.
Dear Papa:
Mama said that YOU wrote me a
letter some time ago. but ! never
did get it. I'll try and write you
few lines to-day.
know you are all very glad the
war is over. and am, too. don't
know when we will go back; I hope
it will not be very long, though We
are not doing anything now. |
sure would like to be home for
Christmas, but don't think we will
be back by then. My time will be
up the 26th Of March.
They have quit censoring our mail
ard don't know where to start
telling you what I've been doing
since | came over here. guess you
know that I'm in the heavy artillery
When we came over here we got
two 320-mm. (l2 1-2 inch) French
railway guns, and we had them un-
til about week before the armistice
was signed, when we came back from
the front and got two 14-inch Ameri-
can railway guns.
We didn't fire much when we
first came over here. We had to
build big camp here at Sommsous.
We lett here in February and went
to tho Luneville sector and were
there with the French for about
four months. From there We went
20 the Toul sector and were in the
st. Mihiel drive; and then in Sep
tember we went northwest Of Yer
dun and were in the drive on the
Mcuse until about a week before the
armistice was signed.
am just giving you general idea
OF what l've been doing. hope it
will not be very long before | can
tell you all OF my experiences.
Well. III have to close and write
to mama. Wishing YOU all a very
merry Christmas and happy New
Year. Your affectionate son.
