Wade Palmer Writes The Journal-Patriot: I have now been overseas for several months serving with the Infantry In Italy and liking It as well as could be expected. We get little mail over here but among mine Is always the Jour- nat-Patrlot, which comes regular ly and I really enjoy reading It for It helps mo to ke^ up with- some of my buddies in the service. also get a lot of news from around old North Wllkesboro which really cheers me up for this is one town you’ll never forget once you have lived there. I can’t say much about Italy, but the people and towns are nothing like the good old states. When you get leave you can see easily what we are fighting for and appreciate home. What gets me most over here is how Italians, or daggos as we call them, crave cigarettes. They’ll swap you anything they have which is much for a pack of ciga rettes, although you have to ar gue with them to get your price for they try every way to cheat yon. Usually I tell them "no compre”, which means I don’t understand their lingo. I wish 1 could tell you more about this place for it’s no plcnlo, but I want to thank the people back home for buying bonds and giving to the American Red Cross for we appreciate all that is done for us to help end this war and get us safely back. I hope my friends, by reading this letter, will understand how I feel and will write soon. I want to thank yon for send ing me the paper overseas and I’m looking forward to seeing It each week.
