HIS is a war of movement. Never before
have troops been moved such incredible dis-
tances, in so many theatres of war, so quickly.
Night and day, thousands of men are in. motion,
by sea transport, motor truck and air ... edging
into enemy territory, shifting to keep the element
of surprise. Did you ever stop to think what it
means, under these trying conditions, to find
your friend or relative, and put your letter into
his hands?
Yet in spite of the tremendous task involved,
tracing men who are moving from reinforce-
ment units in England to group depots in Italy
... or from one location to another... or through
hospitalization or while on leave ... in the face
of every sort of war hazard... 31,500,000 letters
