EXCERPTS FROM RECENT LETTERS:
Ronate Benfey writes from Boston: “The Black Mountain Party at the Jamiesons on New Year’s Even was lots of fun…Among the people present were the Babcocks, Nancy Russ, Nan Oldenburg, Jimmie Jamieson, Jim Raymond, Sam Brown, the two Wrights, Mimi French, and Ati Gropius…. It was so nice to talk about the College with people who had just come from there….School starts again on Monday. I am just going to be there another month, then I’ll start going to work. I am very much looking forward to that.”
Private Homer Bobilin writes: “I have left New Caledonia. It seems funny to be able to write that after the strict censorship we went through when we first arrived. I can also say that I am now somewhere in the New Hebrides….The best news I can give you is that finally I got myself transferred into the Air Force. Something I’ve wanted over since I got into the Army! I’ve received three Bulletins since I’ve been overseas, the October 18 and 25 and the November 1… I hope they continue coming…..”
Lieutenant Bela Martin writes from Florida: “Since I am still in a state of rest until my physical examination the first part of next month, the Navy has had a time trying to decide what to do with me. I will now be an instrument instructor, taking up pilots who will fly under the hood and direct the piano through various phases by the instruments….While at Miami I sat behind a desk making out flight schedules which could at times become an awful headache. Also I gave three lectures in the auditorium on fighter tactics and experiences while flying in the South Pacific. The same students to whom I lectured are up here now taking advanced fighter training….”
Sergeant Evelyn Tubbs writes from England: “I am working very; very hard- seven days a week, all day and up into the night- but it’s all worthwhile if it’ll hurry to get this damned mess over!”
