Dear Editor: .. , I am just one of the hundreds of Duplin County citizens who are at this time serving overseas; I incidentally, am in France and wouldn't trade my position with any one of you back home but., I would like to straighten out a few of the mothers and sweet- i hearts who are .worrying about are 0yer here in' this war zone. . 1 . From time to time the boys over ; here get packages, and parcels that contain-nothine but' food and clothing; this is definitely swell and we appreciate every one. of them but it seems , there Is the funny idea running around back there that we aren t getting plen- : ty.of food or clothing which Is. absolutely incorrect and bould be forgotten by anyone who has this opinion of the way h tings are being run -over here. So before this idea goes any further I'd like to say this- much for the benefit of all concerned; we are getting the very best food possible (and believe me it's plenty good when . the time come to "Fall in for Chow.") and I haven't until this day seen a single GI who was cold for the lack of clothing. There are times when a hot meal and dry clothing are kinda Jiard to find but that stands to reason when you , find i bunch of men that are spending their time-to winning a war and are forever pushing on without time to stop and prepare a "nice chicken dinner or to change clothes, that have, a bit of jnud j u. .. ru.... t n ; fc inH nf tM-t fov. w. . - - . w - . . and besides we axe toQ busy to complain. . , ; v .' , ' So to all the Kith and Kin back home, and speaking in behalf of all the Duplinites oyer here I want to say thiJ-"H" 'e are strictly GIj! irV . v ; d there isn't ar ' ' '; ' ".er .equipped " son, -. :' y : Vi , .hane one who.
