EDITOR'S NOTE: Two letters were sent home by Winfred today; one to his Folks, and one to his sister, Margaret. This is the only letter home that Winfred addresses to both his parents Mr. + Mrs. Guy D. Maxwell.

May 24, 1944 (1)         2040          WF          Station #114 – Hethel Air Base, UK via New York City, N.Y.

Once again Winfred writes the Folks; the service men’s radio broadcasts are pretty good over there – Melody Roundup; Margaret sends clippings connected to him; England is a beautiful place but rains a lot; they play games – football, basketball, etc. – a lot; hasn’t heard from Cliff for some time; can see him drilling in the Texas dust; and must close now.
