Letters To Home - May 14, 1951

Fort Benning, Georgia
May 14, 1951

Back from Jacksonville Beach Friday morning about 2:15. Wild trip back. Rode from Jacksonville to Willicoochie, Georgia with a salesman. After being dropped off, were escorted out of town by the police chief of Willicoochie just as a thunder storm was about to break. Luckily, another salesman came along, brought us into Columbus, where we caught a bus to Sand Hill.

Now supposed to leave early a.m. May 24, destined to Camp Kilmer, New Jersey. We've been having some German language classes for the past few days.
