know how It was to see our boys, j
"We can forget bombs and gun
fire but being hungry and watch
ing your children cry for food we
will never forget.

hospital. I lost weight a little too ,
fast of late and got some beri-j
beri which left me at 110 pounds. :
All we needed was food and the !
sight of our soldiers. "The child
ren will recuoerate fast but Frieda '
needs a rest." i
