Soldiers in France pay high prices for tobacco
A letter from Private Harry Nelson of the 16th Infantry in France recalls the high cost and scarce tobacco supplies early in service. He notes prices from 3 to 5 dollars per sack, the relief from the tobacco fund, and the impact of YMCA sales, with matches scarce and letters from home valued. The message thanks donors and urges continued support for American soldiers overseas.
