EDITOR'S NOTE: Below is the last letter Winfred sent home to the Folks before 'going across'.
Dec. 9, 1943 0980 WF % POSTMASTER NEW YORK CITY, N.Y.
Winfred writes the Folks, he is still O.K., but busy and has a cold. He thanks the Folks for a satchel they sent; has not heard from anyone for a while; is at a ‘nice place’ but is not allowed off base; has never been so busy. They have their own plane now; wants to keep it in top shape. He will write every chance he gets.
