Get Letter From Japan
Sasebo, Japan, Sept. 25, 1945.
Di ar Mom and All:
Will write ai little now as 1
have some time, but don’t sup
pose this will get off for a couple
of weeks or so, as yet there ain’t
no postoffice here.
We landed, the Fifth Division
Marines, here on the 22nd, that’s
of this month. Were the first
bunch to land right in here and
the Westmoreland w.s the second
ship oitt of the convoy to tie up
to ihe docks here. There was
something close to sixty ships in
the convoy.
This is the Island called Ky
oshue and the closest town is
Sasebo’ but there is not much
left of it as our planes dropped
fire bombs and I suppose other
bombs on it and it is all burned
and blown to pieces.
As quick as our men and the
Marines hit the beach most of
the Japs went for the hills. We
don’t see hardly any around now.
Most of them me in army uni
form yet. When they meet us
guys they bow way down and
give up a snappy salute, just lik<
we are officers.
I haven’s seen a Jap woman or
girl yet. We can’t take any
souvenir’s as we might set off
some boobie trap or something.
There is nothing but hills and
mountains here, hardly any flat
or low land at all. The Japs
have little patches leveled off all
around the sides and tops of the
they raise their rice,
mountains. Guess that is where
they raise their rice.
This place smells plenty Japie
too, and that sure ain’t no lie.
The weather her is about like
| that you have back there. It’s a
1 lot cooler here than it was in
Saipan.
All we haul is troops and cargo.
When we were ut Maway we
were on maneuvers for better
than two weeks that got tiresome.
I haven't got any mail for so
long I won’t know how to read
when we do get it. Can’t hardly
write now as I haven't written
for so long, guess I’m getting out
of practice.
Well, its about time for the
movie to start so will close, hop
ing everyone is O. K. Write
real soon.
With lots of love, Wollis.
