The Biography of Herman Shooster

two baseball games between our team and the Chicago White Sox and Detroit Tigers. Don’t get the wrong idea, though. All is not milk and honey. Sometimes you get so damned homesick it’s a crime. That’s why I want you to write me often. I know you work, Iz, but I’m sure you can find a few minutes now and then to write. If you hav- en’t anything to say, just sign your name and mail it.

So far, I like the army, and I know it will do me a world of good.

Love

Herman

P.S. Don’t forget to visit mother often and do me a favor and get her out of the house once in a while.
