Private Fred W. Lewenberger, H. Q.
Co. 305, Infty., 77 Division, A. E. F
Somewhere in France, October 22,
1919, writes his mother: I am feeling
fine. We have been taking some great
hikes and talk about your grass, I have
seen just thousands of acres of it, but
it's nothing like ours. I wish you could
see the goats they have over here.
They are milk goats, the brown kind
like you use to tell us about. When
we travel along the road we see
French women out herding them for
there is no fences in this country.
Everything is high here. A follow
can't even buy a piece of candy. If
you send anything for Christmas send
some hard candy. We get everything
else we need. We have our heavy
woolen underwear already. I don't
think it gets very cold here so a French
girl tells me that can talk a little Eng
lish. Meat Is 50 cents per pound,
cheese 70 cents and little white can
dles 12 cents apiece. Bread is the
cheapest thing one can buy to eat.
. I never saw so many motor trucks in
all my life. Sometimes there is a
thousand in one string, makes of all
kinds. I will sure have a lot to tell you
about over here when I get back. I am
sending you a couple of handkerchiefs
that I bought a month ago have carried
them in my pocket as I didn't have
time to send them to you. We are an
awful long way from a town now.
Nov. 10, 191S. You see 1 have been
transferred to the 77 division, which is
now at the lines. I have been on the
hike for the last three weeks and
didn't have time to write. We have
been right behind the last push the
Americans made and I sure got to see
what I wanted to see for a long time.
I guess the Americans gave the dutch
a "run for their money." It looks to
me like this war will soon be over, at
least I hope so. We are having good
weather, but have had a lot of rain
which made it muddy. The Germans
sure thought they owned this coun
try for they planted crops in all the
grund. You ought to see the big cab
bage patches all around here. They
bad to run off and leave it all, so we
have a lot to eat
Dec. 14, 1918. Well I have lots of
time today to write, we are still in the
same place, don't know how long we
will Btay, maybe all winter. All kinds
of rumors going around to that effect
But a fellow can't never tell for orders
change very often. I still feel One, we
are getting lots of eats at present, and
have nothing to kick about, only that
we are not on our way home. But
guess there's no use to look for that
until peace is signed. That may take a
long time before those Dutchmen sign
"peace."
If they ever start war again there
won't be any more Germany. We are
still drilling just the same as we did
in the states. I suppose this is to keep
us busy and limbered up. In this town
of Antruville there is no barracks so
we just live around in some of their
barns. I have often wondered where
all the people of France live. I have
seen very few kids in any of these
towns. They all seem to be old, frogs,
and not very many of them.
The other day I ran across a fellow
that went to Camp Lewis the same
time I did. The funny part this Guy
Cooper, has been dishing out feed to
me for a month and I didn't know him
'till he said "Oregon." I asked what
part. "Sandy" he said and his father
and mother live at Lents. He went to
Camp Kerney when Frank Mooney and
Ed Roadarmel did. Boots Roadarmel
was left at Camp Mills with others that
had the mumps. He told me of many
we know that were killed in the Ara
woods. September 25th. One
Charley Austin was shot the last day
before the war stopped. He had
charge of us from Oregon City to Camp
Lewis. Cooper used to run the Bull Run
butcher wagon, he knew everybody
around Clackamas. We sat down and
had a good talk you bet Tell Morley
I have a German pistol if I can get
home with it.
