Sgt. Byrne became a friend of
Farnsworth in the service, and be-

former Mary Alice Geiger, of this
place.
In describing the liberation of
France, Sgt. Byrne writes, First in

world; to say nothing of the air

The wonderful treatment given us
by the Navy, who are the personnel
of our amphibious fleet is something

"The enthusiastic welcome given
us by the French people as we pass
thru the various liberated French
towns is heart-touching. These peo-

years, and thank America whole
heartedly in spite of the fact that
many of their homes have been shat

who has never seen his latest off
spring, spot an infant in the crowd
approximately the same age as the
one at home. I've seen them jostle
