(Continued from Page Two)
the address changes and I would
appreciate your mailing the Posts
to the new one. They certainly
make swell reading for keeping up
with what the folks back home are
doing. Of course it nearly breaks
my heart to read that Mr. and Mrs.
Zilch (whom I have known well)
have had a baby, bought a home
or had a promotion and know that
some agent back there will beat
me to them to talk about the in-
surance they need. However, the
pleasure afforded by knowing who's
where and what's going on makes
up for those other minor flies in
the ointment.

Pvt. James Sorber
Word has been received that Pvt.
James A. Sorber is stationed
Fort McClellan, Ala. It is expected
Jim will make a good soldier for
he was named for two Civil War
Veterans, his great Uncle Jim Sor-
ber and great great-Uncle Alex
Preston. His great grandfather was
the late Capt. D. J. Morton of Dal-
las.

and Kingston township hills are
beginning to turn to all those well
remembered beautiful colors and in
a few more days those rabbits that
gnawed carrots and cabbages will
begin to thin out as the lads with!
shotguns begin to get busy.
Every Post beside giving pleasure
starts a train of thought that gives
twinges of nostalgia. You can
quote me that T'll be glad to get
back home. However, from the
looks of things, it will be quite
some time before I do. This is nice
duty but if I have to be ashore, I
don’t see quite why it couldn’t be
Stateside. Probably | millions of
other guys feel the same way
though.
About once a week out here I
get to the Officers’ Club Annex for
a day and a night and it really is
swell. A cabin with hot and cold
water, mirror, wash bowl, bunk
‘with inner spring, mattress, show-
er, a large building with dining
room, lounge, reading room good
refreshments, swimming on ned
beach, volley ball, paddle tennis]
and tennis courts. Lacking the]
friends one would like to have!
there, it is very nice. |
There isn't much more to say
except thanks for the Post, and you
already know how much they are
appreciated. Regards to all my in-
quiring friends.

{coast for seventeen days and my
trip out was of amazement and
pleasure. I travelled through many
states that I never knew had so
much beauty in them. One was
the state of Arizona with its pra-
iries, canyons and mountains. It
would amaze most Northerners.
Other states I enjoyed were S. Car-!
olina, Georgia, Texas and New
Mexico.
My job with the Marine Air
Corps is teaching fellow Marines
about chemical warfare. I took my
training in chemical warfare at
Edgewood Arsenal, Md. in the mon-
th of May. Until the enemy uses
gas, which I. hope they won't,
chemical warfare must take a back
seat. With only minor things to do.
Enclosed you will find a change
of address.

it surely is nice to hear how the
folks at home are doing and also
how our friends are scattered all
around the world.
My wife writes me from Maryland
that they have had quite a lot of
rain lately. To me who has been
in California for six months with
hardly any rain at all, that seems
strange.
It’s nice here, but I still like the
weather back home.
