My Pear Wife and Kiddies:
Will start another letter tonight.
This makes about a dozen letters I
have written and haven't received
one from you. We were just getting
settled cood. but now- wc have tp
move to another building again.
They moved the galley tonight, so
we'll have to walk about half a
mile for breakfast tpmorrow morn
ing.
We have only about 125 jobs here
now. And soon we'll be starting out
to repair the .different towns of
France and Pelgium that were shot
up. and put up barracks' for the peo
ple to live in. until they can get
their homes fixed up.
1 think this will be an interesting
trip and I'm glad I'm on it. I think
loo. I'll be discharged as soon as I
get back to the states. I haven't
heard how long I will . have : to stay
here, but I don't believe it will be
more than three or four months.
They are sending - the aviation
bunch back as fast as they can, but
I was among the last to come, so I
suppose I'll-be among the last to go
back.
The V. S. has an enormous lot of
material and supplies here. You
couldn't begin to imagine -how much
stuff we have. Auto trucks, for in

mouth if ihey were joined together.
I would like to have some one tell
me the U. S. didn't do anything in
this war.
We have a lot of Frenchmen
working with us. Some of them are
discharged soldiers. They eat din-.
