Soldiers Write Fine Letters From Camp Farragut
A fleet of letters from Forest Park soldiers stationed in Nogales Arizona and Camp Farragut detail daily life in 1918. George Kane is the author of several amusing notes sending greetings to family and friends, describing meals, fellow soldiers, and hopes for a return home. The letters reveal pride, homesickness, and reflections on war, duties, and the Y.M.C.A activity as the writer looks toward a future beyond the conflict.
