Binkley, John Burdette
Binkley reports that he has just arrived from Randolph Field and expects to be in advanced training for two months before he "gets his wings" and his commission. He has received some of the Aztec student newspapers and asks the editor to forward his address change as well as to send him another newsletter ("bulletin"). Binkley's A-20 bomber was shot down over Tunisia on April 2, 1943.
