Korea, May 10, 1951.
Dear Home Friendly Club:
I was very glad to get your May /
letter. It’s good to get mail over
here. We are just below the big
reservoir in Central Korea. We
were up past it but pulled back
as we were stretched out in front
too far after the outfits on our
flanks were pushed back in the
big Chinese offensive but are hold
ing our own and preparing to
advance again in a few days. I am
now with the Grench Bn., that is
in Korea.
I seldom see my outfit as I’m
with a forward observation party
and we stay up with the line com
panies all the time, so therefore
get lots of excitement and thrills
if you could call it that. But we
have taken our share of Gooks
since we’ve been here. They sure
paid for the ground they’ve taken
and are losing it back to us.
Of course we’ve lost lots of bud
dies here. But I guess most of
us guys that came oyer at the
start will be home before too much
longer. I sure hope so. We’re get
ting lots of replacements now, all
new draftees and E.R.’s and part
of the R.A. men" have started
home. So I shouldn’t be too far be
hind them as we all came over last
July. So I guess it’s time we let
some one else take it awhile, what’s
left of us.
Boy, this is my favorite season .
to be home, although it would have
been nice last winter when it was
20 below. Well, news is scarce
so please excuse the writing as
the pen is North. Korean and is
not a good one. I’d better close for
now. Hoping to hear from you soon.
