I eeeeived your grand box yest- erday and I must say, that due to the excellent inannner in which you Mrs. Prentice and Mrs. W. Westlake pack- ed same, it aerived. in the best of con- dition, S, was surprised even the chow - late bars were not broken as I have been in different camps since I land- ed back, naturally it took quite a while to catch up with me (lucky me that it did) I ain taking this oppor- tunity of extending to all concerned many many thanks. I don't think any, of the boys could have chosen much appropriate articles and I want you to 'know that I think it is a grand thing such organizations as The Bay- field Community Fund are doing for so many of the boys over here. Al- though the boys have their own way of expressing thanks they all have the same feelings of appreciation and such parcels as the one I received from you all are very much appre- ciated. We, as you, are hoping it won't be so very much . longer until some of use if not all can thank you per- sonally . Cheerio; From Friend, W. Dunealf. LAC. L. A.
