1t. Edward Arnold is somewhere
in the South Pacifid, where he
evacuates the wounded.
In a recent letter to Mr.. and
Mrs. James Hurst from son-in-
law, S/Sgt. Vim. Curtis, he states
that he is stationed somewhere in
Germany. Sgt Curtis writes that
he has seen the remains Of a num-
Der of cities in that country which
have been blown to kingdom come.
The part Of Germany where he is
at present is very beautiful. The
part he doesn't like is the way the
natives stare at the Yanks when
they drive past, as if there was
doubt in their minds as to why our
boys are there. Earlier in April a
small child, shouted "Hiel Hitler!
at Sgt. Curtis as he passed. Another
son-in-law, Pfc. Sam Leighty,
writes of Germany along the same
lines. The description of the>enun-
try TALES with that in Sgt. Curtis
letter. He says the country is al
most as level as a floor; clover is
now six inches high. The trees and
flowers are all in bloom, vegetation
seems to grow very rapidly. Pfc.
Leighty has been overseas for near
ly two years. He is with the First
Army. Sgt. Curtis has been over
seas eight months and is with the
Ninth Army. Both men are combat
engineers.
