Friday June 4, 1943 The boys from home, in the ar med services, in the States and on the battle fronts are 'keeping up with friends and relatives back. home through the columns of the TIMES. Some of them write us each week. The following letter is from one of them in North Af ica North Africa Ap.il 16,194a Duplin Times Kenansville, N. C. Dear Mr. Grady: J I want to thank you for being ; j so- kind to 4he boys in the Army by sending them your wonderful paper. It is without doubt the fin est present a soldier has ever had. It brings us the news from home Duplin. We must know how things are at home to be able to give our ve.y best to our country. You should feel honored for doing so much for your home folks, and I want you to know that the fellows In the Armed forces do appreciate your kindness so much, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Now, I will try to give to my many friends my opinion of the things I have seen in North Africa. Of course there are many' things I cannot tell or even talk about, but this country has so much I know some of my friends will like to read about it, Africa is as old as the world and the hills and mountains will tell you this when you cast your eyes upon them. However, the valleys are very fertile and many things are going. The mainstay i grain which Is made into either bread or mush. One of the main dishes is a fluffy dish called Kuskus (Koos-koos) which is eaten with the fingers of the right hand. The main food is bread Without Jbread.they would starve. ; Another main crop is grapes, and the grapes make very good wine. The vineyards are ' planted about three feet apart In rows and the rows are about ten feet wide . The grapes are the bunch variety and the vines are cut back each year to about one and a half to two feet above the ground. The grapes grow on the new growth of the vine each year. The ground is very fertile and the grapes are plentiful. Many vgetables are grown. Such as beans of all variety, okra, corn, potatoes peppers onions, tomatoes, and turnips. Most of these vegetab les are grown in the same field with the grapes, because the grapes are in ten foot rows and one or two rows of vegetables are betwe en the rows of grapes. The rainfall is light and water pumps are plen tiful. However they are not used unless the rainfall is very light ir fields ax grnall and i. and their implements are crude. Due to the light rainfall in summer most of them specialize in fruit trees which can withstand the drought Great fields of figs dates and apricots are grown. They are eat en fresh in season or dryed and used during the rest of the year. Many goats are raised. The goats are seldbn killed because the pe ople do not have access to refri- gerat. However, goat milk is im portant Most of it is made into butter or cheese. Well, so much for Africa. I want to give you my new address: H.Q. Co. 131st Bn. F.A. APO 36 c-o Postmaster, New York City. Just remember how much your paper means to the fellows and how much they appreciate it It' is tops with us, and how we know it " .... I , ' . Sincerely SjSgt Woodrow Blackburn Kenansville .
