Oct . 15- Desert Maneuver
Camp Young,
California

Freda Cal.
First day off train notice
wet raincoats
Frenchy- meLohnueller- GeratAnd Drews.

Our home.
Desert, California.

Had quite a time making a camp
out here.
For two days we just put up tents
and took them down again- they
were not on line. Almost took them
down again today but it was the
next company that was out of linenot us. The temperature hits about
110 degrees or over during the day
and goes down to 40 at night. We
have mountains all around us and
they look like they’re just a mile or
so down the road but the nearest is
nine miles and some forty-five
miles away.
