LETTER FROM BON The fol

from Cheater Bunnell, son of
Mr, and Mrs.
C. A. Bunnell

where In the
Middle East:
"Here Is an
other little note
Just to mention
that everything
Is all right
There Isn't any
thing to worry
about because
things are now pretly snfe, The
going was and Is kind of rough,
but those things are unimpor
tant. But whut I really wanted
to say Is, don't worry or feel
sorry for me. I'll be all right.
I'm off to help In one of the
most Important Jobs a fellow
will ever bo asked to do, and
Unit's fighting for the good old
UbA. I don t mean the Amer
ica we studied about In school,
In history books, etc. That Isn't
tho America I'm going to de
fend. America to me la the
townslte we live on, the guys
I have worked with, the people
next door, tho millions of peo
pie like us. Catholic, Prote
stant, or what have you that's
my America.
"Furthermore, I don't want
anyone to touch my America.
I don't want anyone to tell me
Oregon isn t mine any moro. I
don't want to see our homo dc
stroyed. I don't want our home
touched in fact, I am glad I'm
here, and will go wherever
they send mo and be most will

rather fight the enemy on his
own soil than on mine. As long
as I have anything to do with
It, you will never hear what an
enemy bomb sounds like and
you will never see what an
enemy tank look like. We'll
keep our landscapo clean and
quiet. The men who know say
that this Is a big war, but 1 1
have my way of looking at it.
I see it as quite a little war. It
Is no bigger than my heart. It
takes in you, dad, Gloria, Babe
and all my sisters and brothers,
the home we live In, Bishops
and Kennedys next door, my
friends; so that's not a big war.
"Yet, maybe it Is at that
Maybe It really la bigger than
the biggest country and the wid
est ocean. But I guess what we
are really fighting for is for
love, for our folks, for sisters
and brothers, for tho friendly
light shining In tho front room
window. These aro my America

a grin on your face and a song
In your heart for America. Just
remember as long as I'm thou
sands of miles away, so is the
enemy. And this is his back
doorstep I'm on, and he's not I
on ours. It's Just the- way we
intend to keep it.
