DescriptionTwo page written on G.S. stationery folded L to R with stenciled in green ink, a G.I. in uniform leaning against a standard mailbox with flag up and opened door waiting. Addressed to Dear Girls of Troop 2 and Miss Tomoda.
Traveling from MGehee to St. Louis was okay. But from St. Louis to Denver was quite a struggle. We had to run for our seats which we didn't get. Besides having to listen to people and soldiers crabbing we had to sleep in the aisles. I am going to school in Evans. There are thirteen students in the 9th grade. We don't have homework as a rule, but a test, six weeks test. I went ice skating on a river nearby. "How goes it with the troop?" signed sincerely, June Eya.
