How did you like it?" “Fine, Sarah, fine...it’s just the kind of book 1 like to get hold of... I enjoyed every word of it. Wish I could have been along with the author myself... actually living with the men right on the fighting fronts. He got mighty dose to them and they certainly opened up their minds and their hearts to him.” “There were lots of new things in the book I hadn’t seen in any other reports from front line writers. But there was one question the men asked the author that I have seen time and time again in these stories. That was'Are you going to put prohibition over on us sol diers again... and without getting our vote?’ ” “1 noticed that, too.
