Love to all
- George
Great Uncle George sends letters home from his enlistment in Illinois until the boys of the 108th Engineers came home in June of 1919. Goal is to post his letters one hundred years to the date he wrote them. He was writing to his Dear Ones at Home and until Armistice he was just "Somewhere in France." Before he went to France and after Armistice he provides first hand reports of his experiences of WWI.

October 19, 1917 - George Mentions his Sprained Wrist, His Birthday and Mail
Dear Ones
All: As you say you haven’t heard for some time I think some on or two of my
letters must have miscarried for I have written twice and I supposed
three times since I was on the range on my birthday. Can’t write more as my Bucker threw me a
sprained my rite wrist. Well otherwise
will write as soon as possible. Don’t
worry.
