From the Middle East, Johny
writes his mother, Mrs. Dennis Mc
Namee of his experiences.
Dear Mom:
How are you? I am getting along
fine. I am stationed in an American
camp somewhere in the Middle
East and will probably be here for
some time.
We had a swell trip over and I
have seen a lot of places that I
never even thought I would except
in a picture show.
Have you got any of my letters
yet? I wrote about four since I left
the United States and haven't re
ceived any of yours except your
Thanksgiving card. I would sure
like to have been there to help you
with that turkey dinner. We had a
swell dinner on ship coming over,
with turkey and all the trimmings,
and they gave us a carton of cig
arettes apiece. Everything seems
to be high here, especially Ameri
can cigarettes. They are almost 60
cents a package for Lucky Strikes
and Camels and we can't afford to
buy them.
There are all different kinds of
soldiers here Australians, New
Zealanders, British and Americans.
I was in Cairo, Egypt for a visit
and was surprised that the people
and buildings were as modern as
they are.' The people in Egypt are
an altogether different race to the
people of India. The people of India,
as a whole, are all professioal
beggars, are filthy and look like
they are about half starved, it
seems to me.
I also saw Rio re Janeiro from the
harbor and it is the best looking
country I have seen yet. Well Mom,
that is about all I can write about
this time, so I will close. Hoping

BATTLES these days are fought in the air, on
sea, on land and with the help of the Nation's
communication lines.
Operators, handling the greatest volume ol
calls in the telephone's history calls dealing
largely with war and war production occupy
a "hattle station" of vital importance.
You can help them to bring Victory closer.
Though materials for more telephone lines are
not available, due to war's requirements, you
can help keep the lines clear for war by making
only vital calls to the war-busy centers.
Your cooperation helps us to serve yon and
our Country. We deeply appreciate it
