McAnulty, Wallace M.
McAnulty writes on United Service Organizations (USO) stationery with the logos of organizations. He cannot reveal his location, but his 251st Coast Artillery group has moved to Fiji, and he's finally settled enough to write. He describes the arrival of the new "shellbacks" and life among the friendly "natives." He wishes he and his mates could swap "photographs of our different locations," but they "can't even send personal photos home."
