Dear Hon,
Here’s a few minutes to tell you a little about Hayes School. We are having a rather luxurious bivouac. Pitching pup tents for four men and burning individual fires of pretty red cedar.
During the day we ran a big tank problem using live ammunition against real targets. Very instructive.
My biggest thrill came this noon; we found a new plowed field near our area and some of the boys picked up chipped pieces of flint that suggested Indian work. I investigated, and what do you know – I found a nearly perfect genuine Indian arrowhead. I will send it to you as soon as possible. I guess they are pretty numerous around here, but it made me feel good to find it.
I love you very much, Hon. Have to start out on a night problem now.
Always yours,
Wallace
