Dear Sir and Friend:

in Squad 10 of the 154th Infy. of
which I am corporal that would
like to have the home paper to
read every week for it is like a
letter froma friend. $1. enclosed.
There are seven of us that are
from McCrory out of eight so it
makes it real nice for us to be
together. The squad seems like
home to an extent, yet it is diff
erent in ways.
The boys that are in the squad
are Jim Keating, Jim Chappell,
Ayne Crossett, Geo. Crail, Willis
Brazeale, Verlin Prince, Judd
Johnson.
There will be several changes
in the 154fh. Infy. in a short
while. The 3rd. Batalion has
been changed to a Machine Gun
Company and the 1st. and 2nd.
Batalion will go together and
make the 1st. Batalion.
I do not know any news,
therefore I beg to remain.
Your friend,
