Dearest mom and all

            A few lines to let you all know we made it ok except a little tired and warn out from the long ride we were on the road about 6 or 8 hours longer than we were supposed to be.

I think we were getting in to something nice here, I don’t know what it is about yet but don’t think there will be much to do, hope not anyway because if it don’t change it is really going to be hot.

            When we get a little more settled will write again and let you know we may not be here but a few days from what some of them say but will still be in Ft. Benning so will close for this time, Love to all
