Hondo Tri Hondo, Texas. August 2, I0I.I Hear Mr. and Mrs. Williams: I saw your son for n few moments mo-ments Inst night nnd he gnve mr three or fonr issues of the Milford Mil-ford News, which I have rend from cover to rover. As I will possibly bo leaving Hondo the first part of Soptomlwr, I will leave it lo yourr discretion whether whe-ther to send The News hen1 or not. It is good to hear from your friends by letter, especially from your honi-e town. People change around living In one place nnd nnothef Ibnt still the old home town lives on. One of my fond remembrances of Milford valley is the beauty of the old grnnile outcmppings of tho Mineral rnnge, east, of Milford. Mil-ford. With change of season nnd time of day, there is nlwiis the same stendfnstmsss nnd Infinity. One wonders whether people ever notice the gorgeous sunsets of the desert reflecti-d In Ihe stoop wnlls of the grnnlte hills. They nrv the gateway from tho heat nnd dryness dry-ness to ni land of scenery nnd sport s possibilil ies. Mr. Willinms, nlwnys continue your "With the Colors" column-for column-for it is the only wny ninny of us ever hear aloiiit. whnt. other lioys ri'ro doing. Kvery person In Milford Mil-ford should try to Imild tip that column as well ns try nlwnys to fill Ihe Iih'iiI page with Menus of interest. I nol iced where Penney'n were to devote one of their windows to pictures of Milford' Own n the servici-s a noble gesture nnd worthy of support. No doubt you hnve liemrd from Hud that I hnvn left navigation school nnd nun now awaiting or-(lerg or-(lerg for my finnl phas of bom- hardier training. Wo wen- discussing dis-cussing the possibility that we may be able to come home to-i to-i gether lifter he graduates. This is I tentative and will depend on the breaks. Hut if 1 aim slatioiusl in the midwest or wivd, 1 plan to 'drivo home. We would leave llon-do, llon-do, hit Wichita Falls ttl see llar-iold llar-iold and then along tho southwestern southwest-ern i-oute to Kanab and home. 1 have a'nothcr autoinohih and this ( i m 1 will linvp plenty of gas. ' Thus far my work has been instructor in-structor in tlie use of the AU ! calibre automat ic nnd ivvolvor ns well as- the Thompson siib-nia-I chine gun (which is really n liau-Idy liau-Idy little inst I'liiiH-iit .) Also we are giving the navigators a few ele-nicntnry ele-nicntnry points in the operation s'tid theory of the bonibsiglit from a training Iwi.sis.
