Dear Mon, Dad, and Snapper
How is everything today. It was nice to talk to you last night. I was wanting to call you all day long but I didn’t think I would be in camp. It was good to get back to a bed and some hot food. We go back out about and will probably stay in tents for the rest of the time we are out. I think we will be back about Thur.
I have really climbed some hills while I have been gone. Friday we marched 12 miles to get on some trucks; it took about 3 hours. We carried our field packs all the way.
Friday we had a Korean night problem. We stayed awake all night in our fox holes. Well at least we were supposed to stay awake. They had tanks running all around the area. The noise coupled with the thought that a tank would run over us sort of kept us awake. They kept setting off dynamite and dropping flour sacks and even had some psychological war fare. They played records of Marilyn Monroe talking and singing. It was interesting. The North Koreans do that to make you home sick they tell us.
Saturday we came in and worked around the barracks etc. I went to the show last night. I saw “Stage Shows.” They have some good movies and we don’t even have to pay.
Well not much more to say. I’ll write again this week.
Love, Ted
