Winfred writes the Folks it’s Sunday and he is still here; today is open house for the public to come see the setup and planes; wishes they could see how big the C-54’s are; encloses a clipping that explains their work there (DO NOT HAVE); B-29’s are hitting Tokyo now with little opposition – Germany had better air defenses; hears Doolittle and most of the 8th AAF will be moving to the Pacific and will sink that little island – Japan is a better target but most of their industries and resources are dispersed on the continent; is glad the A.T.C. is not in Bombardment – Japs have no use for prisoners & aren’t afraid to die; is disappointed in the soft hearted Americans are beginning to show towards the Germans – our guys that didn’t come back would feel the same; we should turn the Russians loose on them since the Reds saw the Nazi at its most powerful while our big shots just read about it – oh well, as long as it doesn’t happen again; ends to go get chow.
