Helen Fox Angell letters to Bess Peebles Fox, July 1944-April 1945

1944-10-07 Helen Fox to Bess Peebles Fox Page 3

No, the information should not be broadcast as no order to that effect has come through. Poor Wil!, he reminds me of a squirrel in a cage. Why doesn't he take a good job that pays well and get away from Betty now and then! Honey, the officer dances are very dull usually and I am with so many more interesting men all day long at the lounge and craft shop that I can't enjoy them very often. It takes lots of artificial pep in the way of Scotches for everyone. They are like Dr. Bennett or Bert Belding -- very nice men but not very exciting for one's leisure time. The places I enjoy going are those where I meet people away from the unit. Time for bed now. I'll enclose some more pictures. Group one - sitting, me (hospital dress), Lin (winter uniform), Gen. (summer uniform) Standing - Boopsie, Jay & Morty air corps
Polly going over the gate to the picnic place
Several nurses and hospital quadrangle in background.
Judy [Opedolil?] (one of nurses) and my bicycle on right with basket
Love, Helen
