Dear Friend: Your recent letter with enclosed blank reached me today and as I have a few minutes this evening I will an swer at once for I do not know when I will have another opportunity. the The work here is very strenuous and we do not have much time to our selves, for all of the daylight hours are spent drilling or working and most of the evening is taken up by last classroom work. Within week the work . has taken a much more interesting turn as we are now constructing a bridge over one of the creeks near camp and assisting on a complete trench system for a battal ion. The bridge will be approximate ly one hundred feet long and about twenty-five feet high. The trench sys tem will require about $20,000 worth of material for the construction. Most of this amount will go for barbed wire is nearly enough material as there at hand I to revette meet a number of "the old boys" ev ery day or two in my travels arounds camp so I do not feel like a stranger in a strange land. the trenches.
