Transcript

Pvt. Samuel B. Magic Squadron 398, Flight C, Keesler Field, Mississippi.

Hi Cookie! How you all (my southern accent) I am now in the U.S. Air corp. Surprised? So am I. I went to the sugar bowl game and the Mardi Gras at New Orleans New Years, it was supposed to have been called off but wasn't you can go swimming almost any day or boating. This is more of a picnic than a war but it wont last long since the A.E.V. went through. Please write. Sammy

Miss Caroline Cash, o/o Charleroi High School Charleroi, Pennsylannia, Washington Co.
