The Biography of Herman Shooster

To: Mr. and Mrs. I. Shooster 22nd and Melrose Avenue. Ridley Hall Apt. Apt #7 Chester, Pa.

Pvt. Herman Shooster 637th Clr. Co. Sea. Plt APO 70 c/o P.M. San Francisco January 7th, at Sea Dear Iz and Sil,

This letter will be mailed to you from the Philippines. As I write this, I have already seen parts of it. I have written the folks merely stating that my A.P.O. has been changed (it is now APO 70). I have not and do not intend to inform then as to my whereabouts, but, rather, I intend to have them continue to assume that I am still in the Nether- lands East Indies. I shall tell them after things have quieted down, and there is no longer any imminent danger. I’ll say so long now. Wish us luck. If my letters are fewer, it is only because circum- stances will not allow me time to write more often. Love Herman

January 7th, 1944
