Good news a letter from home is his consolement, his morale builder his courage and determination to make the best of it with what you have. Well folks I am getting my field pack ready for action so I say solong for a while. May God bless you all I sign off a good soldier one of yours always. - Steve"This is just one exerpt from the book "Letters From My Uncles", an historic novel of World War II.
