of this country. Want to come with me. So far I've been in 22 of the 48 states. All the mail I've received since I got back from furlough is just what was waiting for me at camp. We left right away and no letters have been able to catch up with us since. All our outgoing mail is being censored now. Had to send my radio and camera home this morning. Wish I could have kept the camera but orders is orders. We're staying in tents here with old coal stoves in them. Dirty, and its been plenty cold up until today. Snowed a couple of inches but its all melted now. I've really been over the country in a month. 3 trip between Iowa and La and then over here. Been so busy and mixed up that I don't hardly know whats up. Had a lot of fun at times though. Well don't think I should say much more now only write. May be a long while before I'm able to write you again but I'll be thinking of you. Love Clarence My address is Co. E. 133 Inf. New York City, N.Y. A.P.O #813 C/o Postmaster
