I came here one week ago, and I'm sure there must be a "Hoover Rail" some^vhere in the madl for me. I took the two copies vhich I had in Virginia, over to Omar Rollins. He was crazy about them babies, and I left them with hir.i. This is an auto mechanics shhool, Jim, I don't laiov/ how they ever figured I could learn that, but they did. I go to school about seven hours a day - no smoking during that time. I ’.vas a damn good soldier in Virginia, and left there with nine other guys, and it won't be long no;v. Sure hope Jimmy likes the army. I thinlc a lot about the young fellows going to the army- to an old sows ear like me - what goes. Sincerely, Jerry Cc'id’jell Ft.
