| Description |
English: "June 20, 1941
Dear Dad: It’s been some time since I last wrote, but I’ll break down now and try to dash off a letter. I returned from out-post duty, where it was impossible to write, last week and am now back in the main camp, still living in tents and still watching the days drag by. The barracks, which were supposed to be ready when we first arrived, Feb. 7, 1941 are still six weeks from completion and I’m wondering whether I’ll ever live in them or not. The Cubans, who are working on their construction, are apparently making the most of their opportunity and intend to make the building of the barracks their life work, with a regular paycheck every Friday. You can’t blame them, because the completion of the project means the cessation of Uncle Sam’s nice, big paychecks" From the Edward L. Parke Collection (COLL/5627) at the Archives Branch, Marine Corps History Division OFFICIAL USMC PHOTOGRAPH |
