Letters From Boys at the Front Describe War Life

In May letters from Paul Gamble to his sister recount camp life in France. He jokes about overeating after parcel rations, notes fellow troops including Earl Servage and Andy McCulloch, and comments on German prisoners and artillery. He asks for the Landis paper and mentions shortages of cake and hominy while awaiting further deployment.

Resting in France the war continues and hopes rise

Roscoe Wilder writes from a south of France rest camp describing tents by the sea, blooming apple trees, and lilacs as he recovers from shellfire and trench duty. He anticipates Uncle Sam joining the fight, notes Fritz shells the front, and contrasts peaceful countryside with the trenches and danger.
