by contradictory statements by judgments
and by Just plain misstatements of facts
Our own overseas service in World War gives pretty
good of how the veterans OF this war are
acting the fighting After the 1918 Amsice,
thinking and dreaming OF nothing esemonng' noon
and night-but getting home.
AS the weeks and months by and of for
reason or another still across the pond began
fly thick started edge small petty
grievances became, minds njusces of major Importance
that home and back in civve the
only army join would be the Salvation Army
So what happened
Following Japanese sneak attack Pearl Habor thousands
of World enlisted the Armed Forces and thous
ands more of tried desperately get the only

Germany IL January 1916
MY mind very distaught with the conflicting
of and redepoyment
I'm up all that feel I've lost all faith my
fellow Americans home They they represented by their
Senators and Congressman be ecenered greedy
partitions of the knew can't understand That men
would be filled with the political make good showing
grab that they would completely all the
time human life and endeavor that have been generously
spent in the last three four years
They messed the Armys redepoyment much
that the occupation nearly beyond control Trained
personnel is lost in the dim of recollection And why?
Because votehappy legislators, filled with desire please the
People instead of looking ahead have redeployed the
basis of thousand this month and hundred thous
and by the end of month regarding only the effect of numbers
the civilian popuace They have comprehension of
the things necessary o carry and win the peace.
Consequently instead of ordered system which
any Army democratic otherwse) have method by
which of the duty,
S a a low
While it that longer wagng still
hghtng-over hereto effect The diuniy home
has brought dsrespe and dced from those have
conquered in
The caused by the problem of redepoymen has deeply
affected the morale the thinking and acting of the This
quite evident the German people and adds their dsrepect
of and for We easily change the minds
of people who laugh behind backs because generally
speaking they have believe when ourselves
so poor example
The easily of command has been completely
disrupted morale An order doesn't bring open refusal
yet who have given up all desire longer
difficult that's masterpiece OF
have lost all faith the Amyl And why2
Because legislation hasn't supported the Army And this being
true thinking only of getting has for
thing but personal pleasure In order jobs here
pleasure has occasionally be thrust aside When it ism
we fail just a little
Il wish could present the clearly in wordsbut it
be be appreciated
You all home hear only what the newspapers pre-
you very distorted picture-dependng what
pull the big strings the readlhs dem
idea of soldiers staging demonstrations and strikes is all
But the demonstrators entirely at ault is the
awaken the public the being enacted
here interested could write after of heated
