Glad to hear you run across another Diehl sure their nice people. Ha Couldn't help but be. Glad to hear the Briener boy is with you. Say it sure sounds like their feeding you good. Don't get fat now or you'll have to take the tuck out of your pants. that reminds me I forgot about putting some in your shorts. You probably wont need them anyhow petty soon.

Dearest Helen,              Here it is about morning again and I have been unlucky enough to get a fire watch the first night here. I started at 2:00 a.m and must watch that no fires break out in our dormitory until 6:00 in the morning. We have no one that checks us here so we can do about anything while on watch. We have to make a report each hour while on watch.        It is sure a swell night here darling I sure wish that you all could be here also then the night would be perfect.We do not have to wear our pea coats and will soon be in whites that is if we stay here long enough.

Here men are sent to all ports but this will be our home port if we get shipped out. Which wi
