Saving...
through Monday night. At about 5:00 in the morning Tues. we moved out and another Bat. attack the position using live ammo. The had mortars, rifles, machine guns artillery. We got in at noon and the afternoon we spent sleeping and cleaning things. Tonight some of us went to the early movie and I just got back. Its time for lights out now. I got my watch today and its been running fine this afternoon. Maybe it will be ok now. Sure been a pain for Ken. Do you happen to know what was wrong with it? Hope you had a fine trip back. I'm sure glad you went on a vacation and visited Ken. The news looked awfully good today. Its had to keep from being over confident. Got to close for now as the lights go out in a couple seconds. Love, Carroll
