Japan Sept 19-1945 Dear Dave, Have been moving around quite a bit since I left the states and my Scuttlebutts are just now catching up with me. I really do appreciate getting them. I see that Leslie Dunlap Jr. and Bob Darbyshire are in the same Division as I and will try and see them soon. They should not be far from me. Since I left the states I have been on Luzon near Manila, on Cebu Island and now in Japan near Yokahoma. There is quite a lot of destruction in all places. We are all glad the war is now over and we hope the soon we may be home with our families. Thanks again for the Scuttlebutts. As Ever PFC Ed Gilmere New Address 2nd Bn. Med. Det 164 Inf. AP.O 716 San Francisco, Calfi,
