December 6, 1942

Dear Pa,-

I received the magazines today and was glad to get them as I've read about everything we have here with the exception of a few books in the reading room which are very uninteresting.  We had a parade here Friday and were viewed by General Ben Lear and he liked it so well that we got Saturday off.  You heard of Gen Lear, he's the one who was in the papers about a year ago over that yoo hoo business that they had some trouble over;  It's getting warm here again today and probably when we get up in the morning it will be cold again, that's the way this climate is, one day warm and the next freezing and due to that a lot of us have colds.  Well there isn't any more news so I'll close now.

Luck

George
