Summary[edit]
DescriptionLetter, 9 August 1941, page 2 of 2.jpg |
English: "Have a little authority-damn little-but after reading the papers, and magazines, I think I would be much better off as a selectee. At least when my superiors spoke to me in a nasty tone I could write my Congressman-if I had one-and have him punished.
We are now living in barracks which is quite a change after spending the past eleven months in tents. These barracks are about the best I’ve seen since coming in the Marine Corps. Good beds, screened, and fairly cool. For the present we have adequate space in the squad rooms, but I suppose the high command will soon remedy that. The mess hall follows the motif of the barracks in design and color, but the food remains the same-lousy. " From the Edward L. Parke Collection (COLL/5627) at the Archives Branch, Marine Corps History Division OFFICIAL USMC PHOTOGRAPH |
