"I am sorry I didn't get over to help the boys. I don't feel like I have
been in the Service at all, but I have done the best I could. I think
those who went oversea are the ones that should have all the praise for
winning this war."
ROY B. ANTHONY
"We are here training to fight for the old flag and we will not give up
until the last one is dead."
WATSON WARE
"A German garden was captured by our boys a few days ago, so we are living
high on cabbage, turnips, etc. You should see what fine homes the Germans
had in their dugouts: electric lights, bath rooms, pianos and all such to
make life pleasant. I want to tell you, however, that they are not
spending much of their time playing pianos and taking baths now, for our
boys are giving them all the music they are looking for, and then some."
WAYMON C. ANTHONY
"For the sake of my country, I am anxious for the day to come when I shall
have the opportunity of going over the top to capture the helmet that you
mentioned in your last letter, not for the $50.00 reward, but for the sake
of my country and the people who are dear to me. I trust that when the war
is all over I can go back home and truly say, 'I have done my all'."
