Notes

Dear Ladies: Many thanks for beautiful socks received through Bill Fullmer a few days ago. They come in very handy. Am going along nicely, as I believe all the Hedly boys are. Of course do not see much of the boys now. Am in the machine gun section and Bert Schulbert is the leading light on our gun, a good man i… Sam McCurdy is also on another gun, being I believe the only other fellow from the valley in the machine gun section.
