GREENWOOD ARMY AIR FIELD
GREENWOOD, MISSISSIPPI
May 8, 1944
Dear Bryant Service Club,
I guess it's about time I used some of my penmanship I was trying to improve in Bryant and thank you for the Easter box. The boys and myself enjoyed it very much. A surprise package is always something to think about.
Now I am in Basic Flying training school at Greenwood, Mississippi! We are just finishing and we'll go to advanced soon. I here [sic] from Bill Bliven quite often. He was up there a little while ago. Said it seemed quite different. Lots of new faces. Be we all belong to Bryant!
Thanks again for the candy and if I ever get home I'll be sure to drop in at Bryant.
So Long,
Howard Spalding
