- at 9 am we got two sandwiches
so we did not starve- I think I
could have slept on a stone wall
and everyone else- were we
dirty.
It took another day to clean up.

and Walker
Mess Sergeant in Truck

Capt. Fields unawares

The last three days we have been getting our tanks
ready to leave here.- up at 5 and work till dark a few
nights- it should be all finished by Saturday- and
then we have our clothes to pack away-We are headed for Louisiana.
