Benjamin returned to his outfit somewhere a Belgium after spending seven Dags on the Riviera he wrote us a letter. Although mail cell restricts letters to 200 words or less this letter pertain to Nice and to the Restees and a problem in voting both so we tossed the Rule out of the window and let Benjamin go the omit. He has a the letter Fot Surra a bit of advice for other Restees v dear editor i just completed a seven Day furlough in Hice. The Surra harnessed All the splendid facilities which this famous resort offers. To make the is Good time More genuine the military discipline is relaxed entirely. After the i.

Experiencing a certain portion of the sweating it out by Mauldin sirt Immy mane As myself f of by a taster he legislation introduced by gentleman from Kansas payment of soldiers savings deposits in three to six afoul monthly instalments. Instead at Lump sums is something for gis to voice our opinion on then let his careful scrutiny Check the High who will be spenders when they unless the representative from Kansas has some unfounded theory for this Wise move 1 think it Best that the old Law remain As la. So will most of the other soldiers who a lbs a Phr Felt As i did upon Reading this excerpt. A ims inflation St adj Tutor s note col jul. Fulton to savings has explained that fhe Cele by a would prevent a sob Dier from getting Deposit in a Lump sum. The Soldier would have his Choice of taking the Deposit in a lamp sum immediately on discharge or of withdrawing it in monthly instalments. Col. Fulton explains. At any rate the Bill has not yet been passed pour quoi dear editor a few months ago they took us out of the engineers to become infantrymen. After be Day the plan was changed. We went Back to the engineers but not to our in Iii outfit a Engineer hardships of War which was dished out generously to the average i 1 sincerely believe that there is not anything in the world too Good for the go i also believe that the i has not the obligation to convey the impression to the people in Europe that we americans Are a nation of Angels and puritans. By the same Token the i should refrain from giving the French civilians and military personnel the notion that we Are a nation of bums and drunkards. Nation of tramps observing the conduct of a number of gis while they Are on their seven Day rest in Nice you cant help feeling that the non gis Don t get any other impression but that we Are a nation of tramps and hooligans. The Hitler Goebbels propaganda for years drilled into the minds of the european that we Are a Decar Dent nation which Doest possess any moral values but primary indulges in getting Quot stewed and Longs Lor vulgar pleasures. This propaganda assumes reality in the eyes of the non gis who see our action while we Are on leave. The wonderful illusion of us being liberators and extremely generous people fades away in the air. The bowery in . Famous for having the most drunks even in the Hight of her career during prohibition time was merely. Child a play in comparison with what the gis carry on in Nice.

So those of us who manage to stay sober see the sullen and angry faces of the frenchmen who Are innocently abused by the gis whose liquor got the Best of them. We feel sort of ashamed to Wear the same uniform. Perhaps getting drunk is a necessity. Some people must have an outlet of restrained Energy. May 1 suggest to those in authority to set aside a place for anyone who feel a need to get drunk. The conditions should be Quot drink to your hearts contents but remain inside till you sober up. Most Likely the remarks will be Quot the hell with the europeans and their opinion of us and a the hell with the oversensitive writer of this regardless How Little value we attach to it it is still a Force whose effects might some Day be immeasurable.
