and great big hills all around. We have our guns now and we hike up the hills like mountain goats and carry a helluva heavy gun and lots of double time thrown in for good measure we drill six hours per day and at night we are always ready to sleep. It hasnt snowed for a week or two and we had one fine day this last week just as warm as May and when the weather is warm this is a fine place but its different when its cold. No pay day yet some of the fellows around here have been paid but not us. Well I guess I will close for now as I dont know anything to say. Your loving brother Pvt. H.W. Wertz. M.G.Co 168. A. E. F.
