Soldier letter mocks army life and praises women in racy terms

A WWI era letter from a Tampa correspondent laments long absence from women, praises male camaraderie and crude humor, and contrasts army life with home comforts. It also notes local real estate ads and a social club formed at Keeling’s ice cream parlor with committees for refreshments and transport. The piece blends military mood, small-town notices, and advertisements.
