whole lot constitute only a small
chapter in a sad sad story. To
think of all the fine young men
who have been cut off or who
have been maimed unnecessarily
makes on feel like having some
sort of revenge on those responsible
for these crimes.
Your paragraph about the
possibility of peace before Xmas is
quite prophetic, as it is now all
but an accomplished fact Germany
appears to be in such a bad
condition that she isn't likely
to take up arms against us
again, & we should have things
pretty much our own way.
Yes Willie, this is one of the
much sought after shore-stations, but
it has come along a bit late in the
day. I think my chances of being
discharged quickly would be greatly
enhanced if I were on any ship in
home waters. But thing are quite
cushy here, &, the cable being repaired
again, we have practically nothing to
so while on watch.
Well, Willie, Best of Luck if you do go
across & don't forget to write me again soon
