Handwritten letter from Glenn "Punk" Fitch in Belgium, addressed "Dear Vivian + all." The letter is written on two sheets of plain paper. In the letter, Punk mentions how everybody in the army is always excited for food and mail call, the weather being rainy and muddy, listening to the army-navy football game on the radio, a request for Vivian Sutherland to send him socks for his birthday, and asking Vivian to have "the boys" (possibly referring to his sons Doug and Gary) write to him. The letter was dated December 2, 1944, but there is a stamp on the second page that says it did not arrive in Gillette, Wyoming until January 4, 1945. |
