Dear Folks:
This has got to be a quickie.
Last Sunday they jerked me in from
outpost, loaded me on a truck and
shipped me to the 102 Inf Div. I am
now with C. Co. of the 406th Regt. We
are leaving for Le Havre on the day
after tomorrow. We are supposed to be
on the boat by the 26th of Feb.
I have been here five days and
have not been able to write any
letters. They told us the APO was
closed or something. However, we got
up this morning and there was a
notice on the bulletin board that
all letters were to be in by 9 o'clock
It is now about a quarter of nine.
So, you can see why this has to
be fast.
Well, I guess I have given you
all the essential information, so
Goodbye for now. I won't be writing
any more. The next time you here
from me, will be when I send you
a telegram on my arrival.
Love
Oby
