This is one of my favorites so far.
I like the order of it.
I like that he thought that it was important to tell Ethel and Ernest the time he reached each spot. I wonder why those particular points. Why New Haven?
I like that he wanted to make sure they knew as soon as possible that he was okay and had made it.
I wonder when he mailed it. The postmark says 12PM on November 12.
There is another letter written the next day that I will post next. That postmark says November 12 at 12 M.
I think it will be interesting to note the postmark stamp as we go along. This one says "Buy Defense Savings Bonds and Stamps." I wonder what it will say in 1944.
