He is married and Lias one daughter who is the Apple of his Eye mrs. Bradley is living in West Point for the duration As Are the wives of several oth r generals in this area. Their daughter. Elizabeth Wiio is 19, will be a senior at Vassar this Tail. It s Only 30 Miles from West Point hence she can be we ii her Mother on week ends. Each of them write to the general three times a week. So on the average he gets about one letter a Day from Home. They usually write Vlf hers. He usually writes about twice a week although during hard campaigns. Two or three weeks some dims go by without having time to write. When he noes wine he peeks out their letters on a poit Able typewriter in a very proficient two Finger system. Does no to speak Elizabeth is majoring in French at Vassar and this summer Laid the ecstatic experience of talking to Gen. Limn Giraud in his own language and asking Hun about Lier father who Giraud had seen just before having Africa. Gen. Bradley incidentally Doe in i a it eve any foreign language the whole Bradley family is devout in its esteem of Gen. George Marshall when Gen Bradley re i iils third Star. Elizabeth Jioie him a letter of congratulations a no said they knew he was Hie greatest general in the world it i to Lien.  i Gen. Bradley is a tall  Wim be ins thin. Although he weighs Lei i minds his Egv in Long and lie is a terrine Walker. Recently Hanson Baldwin wrote a pits about Hun in then it w York times which mrs. Bradley wrote 1mi husband was an excellent piece except he tailed you my Nim height which made me  actually the Genera is just half an inc ii under six Lect Iii his socks. Tile general is deeply tanned. He is balding on top and the lest of his hair is Short and sparkled j with Gray his head flairs out above the ears More than Ila average mans giving Hun a dome and ail air of i cuteness. He wears faintly tinted Tortoise Shell glasses. It would be toying with the truth to Call him handsome. Instead of Good looks his face shows the kindness and calmness that lies behind it. To me. Gen by Job y looks like a school teacher rather than a Soldier. When i told him that he said i was t so tar wrong Boca use his int tier was a country school teacher and he himself has at West Point and other his specially was male t a tight places Mattes. The general does no to smoke at All. He take his cig Aret rations and gives them away. He chunks and it cars in great moderation there j is no vulgarity in his speech. Back j Home he says he and mrs. Bradley probably took one drink a month before supper j Over Here where liquor is hard to get lie drinks hardly Ever but i he it does Iii in a dust cutting ii a Ihnn for visitors at suppertime he has three bottles of Champagne that somebody gave Hun and to has been saving them until we take Messina. J the general a voice is Inch Ami Clear but he Speaks so gently you knit hear him very far away his i aides say they have never known him to speak harshly to anyone he can be firm terribly firm but never Gross nor rude his nudity of Quot orderliness puts people at their ease. A quaking Cand Hist tor of i tee is school at it. Benning was once interviewed a tin. Bradley and when the Soldier Civile out he said. Win. La made no Fel like a general myself he is just Hie oops or of a Smoothie a his conversation is wait Brilliant nor unusual but it is constant with great sine Erity j a general still has tile Mal West in his vocabulary he uses Sui to # a Presmont As a fighting to Lieut the band a and Quot horse of another  not spectacular Cen Bradley is a hard Man to wire about in a Way. Just 1-cause he is so damned not he i he has no idiosyncrasies no in i kist it tem no hobbies he of not collect sea shells he does t Lead Schopenhauer theres nothing x1d nor spectacular about Hun he laughs Good Nat redly about Small things and in has an Ordinary Midwest sense of humor. One Day at Sidi Nair alter Gen Eisenhower had been visiting there. Gen. Bradley walked into la. Room where his chief of Stafl was working and said Bill. Ten. Eisenhower says you re out of uniform t  the cheif of Stalf. A colonel and ail old Friend of Gen. Bradley a was perturbed. He looked at his Leggins his Necktie his shirt everything seemed All right to him and then Gen. Bradley said. No. No. It in t your clothes. You have got on the wrong insignia whereupon he walked Over Unpi nned the Eagle from the colonels Colar and pinned on a Star. The was his Good hum err cd Way of informing him be d been promoted to brigadier general. Radio programs today 9 program 6 30-8 of am Rev Fille hound up. La of am Alii tit few  pc it a  Ltd.
