THE OUTPOST
(Continued from Page Two)
Am doing communications work
under the Hawaiian Sea Frontier
Command and like the work and
the personnel very much. Have also
had a couple swims on Waikiki
Beach which was very enjoyable
(though I'd prefer Harvey's Lake or
George Bulford’s Pond). The trip
out was very interesting to me as
it was mostly new.
Guess that covers about every-
thing, briefly, except that I'd enjoy
having a cup of coffee with Jack
Richardson at Hislop’s most any
morning in the week!
As ever,
George B. Turn, Lt. (JG),
Hawaiian Sea Frontier.
Tell the bum I mentioned,

P.S.:
to write.
® He will when he sees your P. S.,
George. We have been mailing your
Post in care of the Fleet Postoffice,
San Francisco since June 16. Some
of them should be catching up with
you now.—Editor.
Pennsylvania Forever
July 18, 1943.
Dear Editor: 3
Just a short letter to tell you I
have been transferred at last from
North Carolina basic camp to Air-
plane Mechanic School here at Lin-
coln Air Base. I was praying to get
a little nearer Pennsylvania but
didn’t get my wish. I am now at-
tending school which ‘ lasts four
months, then on to specialist's
school. It seems a long time to
wait to get home again.
I really miss the hills back in
good old Pennsylvania. It is level
here as far as I can see. We have
the best equipped base I've ever
seen. The officers and men are all
swell. Charles Barnes of Huntsville
is still with me.
In our last camp the Pennslyvania
boys did it again, as we took the
banners for being the best singing,
marching, drilling and shooting
squadron on the post. I want to
see the fellows from home keep on
winning those banners as always
before.
I'm enclosing the coupon for
change of address and will close for
this time thanking you for the Post.
It helps out very much, so thanking
you again for keeping the home
news coming, I remain
Yours truly, A
Pfc. Howard Wilcox,
Lincoln Air Base,
Lincoln, Nebraska.
® Howard Casterline is at Alliance,
Neb., and Donald Mitchell is at Fort
Crook, Neb. The four of you are all
of the Back Mountain boys who are
now stationed in that flat State.—
Zditor.
Going Back To Army
July 22, 1943.
Dear Mr. Risley:
Since I am home from the Army
‘on a discharge until September I
suggest that you discontinue send-
ing the Post to Camp Crowder.
I drew no end of pleasure out of
the Post while I was at camp. I
repeat that it is a fine thing the
Post is doing for the men in the
service. When I return to the
Army, I am going to look forward
to receiving the Post again each
week.
Thanks for your kindness.
Sincerely,
Bob Lewis,
Shavertown, Pa.
e . .. and we are going to look
forward to some more of those in-
teresting letters you know so well
how to write.—Editor.
It’s Hot In Georgia
July 21, 1943.
Dear Mr. Risley:
Well, after reading the other two
letters that had in the other papers
I thought I should write and let you
know that I read them.
I wasn’t kidding when I said it
was really hot down here. Today
it has been as hot as 101 degrees
and that isn't any too cool to suit
me. Ill take the good old northern
weather any day compared to the
weather we have down here.
We had some more rain the other
day and it really came down. There
for a while I thought it wouldn't
stop. It rained steadily for about
two hours and came down so hard
that the upstairs in our headquart-
ers looked like a small lake.
Our: softball team won the cham-
pionship of the Y. M. C. A. Inter-
Service League and at the present
time we are entering in another

‘| we only lost three games in the
whole season.
Well, I guess everything looks
swell back home about this time.
It looked like the same old town
when-I was home last month, but
it took me a while to get used to
the scenery. At first it looked like
everything had been raised a couple | Mr
of feet.
Well, I guess that will be all for | members of her birthday club. Mrs.
this letter so I'll close and I'll try
to have a more newsy letter next
time.

On New Carrier
July 12, 1943.
Dear Editor:
A few lines to thank you for send-
ing me the Dallas Post. I sure do
appreciate getting it and look for-
ward to seeing the Back Mountain
news each week.
Though I've been transferred
quite a lot lately, I've received it
pretty regularly, which I also ap-
preciate. I left Seattle where I
was stationed the past few months,
and am now aboard a new air-
craft carrier. It is somewhat differ-
ent to me, as I was previously at-
tached to a destroyer. I think I'll
like it O. K.
These letters being censored, I
can’t say too much.
Many thanks again for sending
the Post.
Bill Renshan T. M. 3/C
C/O Fleet Post Office,
San Francisco, Calif.
® There is an air operations officer
on some aircraft carrier (it's a new
one named after a river famous in
song) who was my roommate at
Wyoming Seminary. He is Com-
mander Dale Harris, formerly of
Laceyville, later of Annapolis, Md.
If you ever run into him, tell him
Dr. Jack Kulp and I send our re-
gards. He's a swell fellow.—Editor.
From Billy Price, Jr.
July 1, 1943.
Dear Editor:
I was completely overjoyed at
having received your Dallas Post
this morning. I can hardly express
my thanks to you for it, honestly.
For, you see, it’s the first Post I've
received in three and a half years
in the service.
I miss the wonderful town of Dal-
las immensely. I certainly would
enjoy going home to see my former
surroundings and renew old ac-
quaintances.
Your article in the paper on Mel
Adler’s experiences interested me
very much. I had to go through the
same thing he did, for I'm in the
exact place where he encountered
his experiences and I am very proud
to say that I was with the oufit
that annihilated the Japs here and
wound up the campaign.
We have loads of fun watching
dog fights between our planes and
the Nipponese. We very seldom see
one of our planes fall to earth in
Aame.
I've picked up quite a lot of sou-
venirs in my travels. Just the
other day I swapped a Bush native
a can of cigarettes for a War Club.
They can’t talk English fluently, but
they sure can say dollar and cig-
arettes without an accent.
I haven't seen a white woman in
seven months. I'll probably regard
Eleanor Roosevelt as a striking
beauty when I get back to civiliza-
tion.
Well, much to my regret, I can’t
think of another word to say, ex-
cept I want t6 thank you once again
for thinking of me and sending me
the Post.
Perhaps I'll run into Bud LeGrand
in the near future. He isn’t but a
stone’s throw from here.
I remain,
Pfc. Billy C. Price, H 5
Somewhere in the South Pacific.
e Bill, you old son-of-a-gun: I
thought you were getting the Post
right along until your dad stopped
in one night and told me. Even
then we got balled up on the ad-
dresses and stopped your brother’s
paper instead of adding your name
to the list. Finally with some more
from your dad we got back on the
beam. Anytime you miss the Post
for any length of time, or change
your address, shoot us a V-mail let-
ter. Speaking of white women,
there aren’t any left. They're all
tanned red as Indians from working
in Victory Gardens. Swell to hear
from you.
lished contact, write often. The
folks are all anxious to hear from
{the home town boys.—Editor.
