Coleman, Edward S.
Private Coleman has nothing to do but write letters on 24-hour watch in the Military Police Escort Guide Company. In the Cookson Hills of Oklahoma, his camp was finished in July of 1942. He mentions Harry Mack. His unit is training to take charge of prisoners of war, has none yet, but he states that they will be treated like American soldiers. He describes the weather.
