I am now in .the army of occupation

havo not seen the river Rhino as yot
but we aro only a few miles from it.
We started at Gironville, France,
which is near Verdun, and have hik

weeks. That was certainly a long hike
and a hard one too, as wo carried
heavy packs and most of it was over

our advanced guard miles from us

along some road en the mountain side

However when wo reached that place

You would probably like to know
how the Germans aro treating us.
Wrell ithoy are treating us far better
than wo supposed they would. In some
places they seem to almost welcome

that the war is over and ouly wish
that the Americans had come in it
sooner so that it would have ended be

country sure hute the kai-cr but still
they think that Hindenburg is O. K.
