I was rather amused to hear a bunch of negro troops singing Rock of ages this morning down in their barracks. I guess they must be leaving too from the way they turn to their music. It surely means this, that of the men going over some will not come back. Who that will be remains to be seen. Well at any rate while I have not been converted to any religion I have been absolutely square with you as I told you when I was home and when I come back I am going to be able to truthfully say to you that I have been absolutely square the rest of the time I am away.
