' from her husband, who is a mem

talion in the New Guinea battle
. zone. He writes that he got sea
sick on the voyage over. ,
Although they have cots set up
In tents making a dry place to
sleep," the atmosphere is very
damp but the temperature is
warm. "Dampness." he writes, "is
our worst enemy. It rains almost
continually, and it 'is impossible
to get or keep anything dry. Pa
per cartons are worthless as they
fall apart Everything metal rusts
within a few hours so we just
paint metal things with oil almost
every day. Clothing, bedding and
blankets have to be aired contin-r
ually to keep them from mildew
ing. Leather goods gather mold
wthin a few hours. We use lots
of soap to combat jungle rot a
decaying of the skin from being
wet so much. In another month
we will be able to live in this
climate without so much effort, if
we continue to learn as much as
we have so far."
