Dear Bryant Service Club,

I just received your package several minutes ago, and was so enthused about it, that I decided to send this letter immediately.

As usual whenever I receive a package, my buddies receive the bulk of it, nevertheless, what was left to me was certainly appreciated.

I find your letters very interesting, and informative. how I wish I could have heard Lt. Shors address the class.

I recall the days when I use [sic] to read the letters of servicemen on the board, beside the staircase, I wondered why they didn't write more often, and say more, well I now realize how little free time we are alloted.

Thank you for your consideration and regards to my classmates.

Bryant Service Club,

I received your package which was forwarded to me from my last post. It arrived on the heels of two other packages this week, but, nevertheless, it was highly welcomed.

After the strenuous existence of the basic training center, I am enjoying a comparatively cloistered life here at Sam Houston State Teachers College. I am assigned to an 8 week course in Army Administration.

A good percentage of the students in my company were called to active duty from the following New England Colleges: Brown, B. U., Holy Cross, Conn. State, N. H. State, and Manhattan College in N. Y.

My stay here had nearly reached its full-mark, and wherever my next post and assignment may be, a gift from Bryant Service Club will be appreciated.

Bryant Service Club,

I have finally settled down for basic training. I have been classified for the Air Corp Quartermasters and after basic, which is only 6 weeks in the Air Corp, I expect to be shipped out to one of the colleges for administration training. However, at the present I am in the midst of a basic training period which by no means is easy. They certainly maintain there [sic] 16 hr. a day schedule. Keesler Air field is a fine tecnical [sic] training base, and it has its good points. However, it is a little overcrowded so I warn anyone back home, see all the movies you can, all the dances you can attend do so, and be with your girls often because they will only be a luxury in the Army. Well I’m signing off for now. I hope to receive the Bryant news.
