World War II, 1942-1943

Sept. 28- Camp Chaffee, Ark.
Tomorrow I have to give instructions to a
gang of rookies on machine guns and
must brush up to do a good job.
This Corporal Department keeps you busy
at camp.

Sept. 30. We may pull out of here around the
5th. We may go to california or as rumor has it
to Pine Camp, N.Y. near Niagara Falls but the
latter is too good to be true.
The weather down here is sure funny- hot as
the devil during the day and at night we have
frost.

got back from Texas.
