Dear Dribbles:
| have been wanting to write you
for quite sometime; however, it
seems that l find it hard to get
around to it. This time it's really
going to happen.
Since I returned from my fur
dough, two weeks ago, l believe it
has rained every day down here.
It's really been tough travelling
around
l went into Newport News, Vir-
ginia Sunday evening. The town
was certainly crowded with both
Sailors and Soldiers. Newport
News is only about twenty-five
miles from our camp. They have
buses running on the hour from 5
O'Clock in the afternoon until u
O'Clock midnight. These buses re-
mind you of the school buses such
as you use back home with seats
on both sides.
Dribbles' Service Honor Roll has
really come in hanjv in locating
some of my friends who are sta
toned both in the States and over
seas. There is one address, how
ever, which 1 would like to have,
and that is the address of Pvt.
Frederick w. Stevenson. would
like to have this address so that I
can write to him. have not heard
from Freddie for quite long time.
[ received V-Mail from Pfc. Har-
old A Hopkins this week. I was
sure glad to hear from him. l
also received letter from Cpl.
Mdlard "Reds" Passwaters, and as
usual, was glad to hear from him
also
In letter recently received from
my mother, she told me that Rus
sell Moore, Kenny Smith and
Franklin Morris have been home on
furloughs. / would like to take
EA.b opportunity to wish these boys
all the luck in the world If they
should happen to read this letter,
/ would like to have them drop me
a line and tell me how they have
been making out and what they
have been doing. With all the boys
away, the Old Home Town isn't
what it use to be.
1 hope it is not too late to thank
you for the very nice Christmas
Gard you sent me. Thank you
again.
Please say Hello to all my
friends who live in and around
good old Smyrna. Tell them l send
them my very best wishes.
Yours truly,
