2 The Infanery is a good outfit that what we are when on the ground but we do the work less time with less equipment so why hell ain't it better it has to be. You probable heard what happen to me but I hope thats all. I see that there is quite a few of the boys in the Philp. but where there on the same Island I am is different and it will take a plane to keep up with me the place I have been. I expect to be in alot more to before I got back to the states. My oldest brother is over here but I think he is on some other Island in the Philip. so him and I are not close to gether. If this Div has what they claim it will be the best in the world but will wait till I find out for sure.
