I had plenty hut it was iti my pack roll which I lost. I am using the hook on. sent me as I find it is smoother than a t'ltllc stock. .My willing room is rather cramped. It is a narrow slit trench dug holwoen a boulder and the case of a cliff. I have not seen any children since I received your package, hut 1 am si ill holding on to the little hook as I probably will get the opportunity to give it to some kid sometime. I don't know just what will get by, but anyway I will take a chance on telling you a little of what is going on. When we take up a new position we dig in in a hurry because the enemy generally comes hack at you and he means business, too. The fighting, of course, in some places is much fiercer than in others. The French seem to hi lighting vlgol ously. j I hen- artillery cuts loose at nil times of the day and night and I have see-n evidences of fierce nkirm ishes where they have driven the enemy from a position. Rows of man have fallen. The French have 'omo A i ah soldiers know n as I'.ar Sli.-ers. They like to slip uito the enemy lines at night, slit a throat, and cut an ear oil'. They say this makes the- eiicinv .-loop very light ly. II lias been 1 1 1 ohsei alien that enemy equipment is veiy practical and efficient in design. In my ..pinion, in some cases, more so fhan ours. Their field rations are excellent. I haven't shaved or wa-hed my face real gooj in weeks. You wouldn't know me with this heard. We slay in our fox holes during the day and come out at helmets here and there where the ' night to eat. Most of the time we get hot breakfast and supper brought up to the lines in jeeps. It is very well prepared too. Noon meal is a very light snack eaten near or in our fox holes, as a shell is likely to land close at any time. If you have ever seen a prairie dog colony you have an idea of how we act. If the sun is shining ami we are not exposed to direct enemy tire we sit on the edge of our fox holes and pass small talk back and forth. ! The subject is usually some fan tastic rumor based on wishful thinking, such as our outfit will get to go hack to the States when this campaign is over. Nobody believes them. Hut still it is something to think about. Suddenly a whistle blows to warn of an approaching plane or someone calls "duck" for shell Instanth ever one dives in- I to his bole and not a w.o, i-. heard, j When the immediate danio i is past beads appear and chatter be e ins again.
