We moved today to the assembly area. We are to move up tonight and fix the foot bridge. At the last minute they called it off as the 100th and 103rd divisions had crossed and fanned out enough that some bridges we captured intact so now we won’t go.
We packed every thing up today as we are moving out. The training is finished and we are to cross the river. I have to go up and repair wire. I’d be a runner. Went to the show tonight. Good show.
About the same as yesterday. Wrote letters and went to a show. We had a small party tonight. We ate some of the things we had been saving from our Christmas packages.
Not much to do today. Just a few odd jobs to do. Wrote a few letters and played some cards. Lost my money so I went to the show.
I worked on my requisitions all day. Went to the show again.
We issued more clothes today and I also had to work on my books. Kept busy all day. Went to the show in the evening. Wasn’t a bad show.
Dear Mother & Dad,
Not much to write about. It snowed here the other day and has snowed every day since then. The big trees really look pretty with all the snow on them. My camera was buried in the trucks so I haven’t had time to dig it out and take a picture of it. It’s really hard to crawl out of the old sleeping bag of a morning, as its pretty cold. We have the little light plant fixed now so we get to listen to the radio for the first time in a long time. We had “Command Performance” and “The Hit Parade”. It was really swell to hear good music again. I’m afraid you have won all wrong bomb if you think I have changed. No mom, I’m the same kid. Just in looks that’s all I’ve changed. They say I look to be 30 years old, but I’m still a kid and always will be. By By.
Your Son,
Chick
We got in some new clothes so we issued clothes all day long. Played cards and went to bed.
We moved the first thing this morning over toward Ramblervillers. Set up the tents. We set up an extra supply tent as we have a lot of clothes to issue. We have light in the tent so we listened to the radio.
We were to move back today but we had a little extra work to do so we are moving tomorrow morning. Wrote some letters and went to bed.
