Smith, Charles R.
Smith is "still fighting the Battle of Santa Ana" as athletic and recreation officer. He describes his day and encloses a typed song written by Lou Alter and dedicated to Smith's platoon. The song was presented by Leon Belasco and other Hollywood actors and singers at the Thanksgiving party. Sports occupy a paragraph that mentions Dick Mitchell and Donald DeLauer, Clarence and Andy Randeques, and Durlin Flagg.
