Burrell, Thomas Brent
Burrell "returned from a night mission" to write that the Aztec News Letter is like "an old friend." They use B-17s at Ephrata, but before that he "bombed from "Consolidated B-24's." Bombardiers have "so much to learn about bombing," but it is "really great, though, being up there in the nose where you can see just what's going on. The finest grandstand seat in the world!" He sends regards to the Sigma Delta Epsilon fraternity.
