Extracts of Appreciation
"It's a tough proposition; it's a terrible thing, but we know that some
blood has to be spilled and we are willing to let it flow for the cause
and the best country on earth."
"I am always overjoyed to hear or receive news from my dear friends at
home."
"The French people go wild over the U. S. boys. One can't get lonesome or
homesick, they treat you too good."
"I am still on the destroyer, _Shaw_, and we hunt 'subs' most every day."
"'Tis needless to say that the letters and Bulletins which I received
today brought one grand little message and a feeling of comradeship into
my heart. I appreciate them very, very much and I enjoy them more and
more."
"I don't want to quit until the job is finished."
"Your encouragement, our bullets, and it's all over."
"I am happy that it fell my lot to serve for our grand and noble country
in her fight for Democracy."
"I hear that we are going to France. I am just 'crazy' to go."
"Your letters have given me a great deal of pleasure and I can imagine the
joy they cause the fellows who have gone across."
"I have been living under the ground since I have been on the front. Don't
know how I would feel if I could get into a house again."
"If it wasn't for the Red Cross, the Y. M. C. A. and the Service Station,
I don't see how we could get along."
"I have been in action and I feel more than ever that there must be no
peace without victory and every soldier I have met shares that feeling."
"You would feel a deep new tender feeling for France and her people if you
could see them carry the Stars and Stripes so proudly, and note the
feeling toward the American soldier."
"Well, they say that we have had a war in France and that it has come to
an abrupt close. Isn't it strange how easily and how swiftly we put a
serious crimp into the great German mass? I can't realize it--it seems a
long dream."
"I have been in England, France, Belgium, Luxemburg, and on the line of
Germany since I have been in Europe."
