As Ever, Jii-.a Southard * * ^ ■i'f Dear Jin: , I have just finished reading ny copy of Hv/t OxT the Hoover ^^,il and I ir. r-joyed every lino. It brought back neraorios of days ^ono by. I can just inajino^hovir quiet and peaceful it would be to b e bock there, sitting on the old Hoover Rail, vdth the bo yE,tho I see the nanes of boys I do not renei-iber, but there were lots I do know that are in the service, doing bhaoj- bit, and I feel sure everyone of then enjoys reading Hot Off the Hoover Rail, just as nuch as I, especially those that are over seas,for the boys will gladly alss chaw to answer nodi call, and a copy of the Hoover Rail is just like getting a letter fron everyone back hone, so I an anxiously looking forward to receiving next copy. We aro faring pretty well over here now, but it isn't like the good old U.S.A. The foJics over there just don't Icn ow hovj to appreciate the wondoi’ful country vie have Vfo often road of the str.lkos they have had for Idgher v;ages, and the boys over here do not like it, for they don't fool like they aro doijig their part. If they could get a gast of tho front lines, then I thinlc they would not Icick.Tlie boys arc really , burnt up over those coal strike's back in the states. 7fcll, Jird, there isn't very i?uoh in the way of news that I can’ write because of r.iilitary regulations, tho I could toll sohe very in.terosting things, but that will have to wait Until the boys all got togothor back there on the old Hoover Rail. I wish to thank you for tho sowing ld.t for it will cone in handy for the lifo vjo have is protty rough on rags. y/ishing you all the' luck with your paper, Hott Off tho Hoover Rail, Sincore3jy, Parker '"'ray •){• * -5^ * •!;- * is- -js- ^ In the Desert, Hello Hot Off tho Hoover P.ail: Jvinc 30^1943 • • Just received ny copy of your paper and thinlc it is one of tho best things I have seen that has beon published for our boys in service.
