Dear Mr. Miller:
Many thanks for your kind
thoughts towards us onee again in
your kind gift of cigarettes, which
were here waiting for me when I re-
turned from leave. They sure are a
great help to us each month. I came
hone from leave with just'•one packet
of cigarettes and wondered where
I was going to get more but one of
the lads here told me there was some
in our mail room for me so I was
saved again from having to smoke
English cigarettes so you sees must
thank everyone of you in the Clinton
Branch of the Legion.
Everything is going along as usual
here and. have been wishing to
get into action before now but just
can't seem to get anywhere but to a
few 'districts here in England. The
time though will most likely conte
in the end.
Will close now and wish to thank
you all again for your kind thoughts
and gifts which arrive regular. I get
the Clinton paper every mail.
Yours truly, Tpr. R. Grainger.
Many thanks for the cigarettes
received in good shape and highly
appreciated. Please note the change
of address. to
