Harvey, Walt
Harvey writes "Camp Kidd Boalboa" above the Navy insignia on his stationery. He apologizes for not sending a letter sooner, but he had hoped to visit and will still try. "Made me sick," he says, to hear about the deaths of Tom Cozens and Willy Shropshire. He gives news of Bill Nettles and Johnny Grenfell. His job of training recruits "has to be done" but "drives one nuts once in awhile."
