McAnulty, Wallace M.
Writing on "Trans-Pacific Airmail" stationery, McAnulty gives his location as "Somewhere on Oahu" with his 251st Coast Artillery group. He is chagrinned to receive notice of debt to the San Diego State College Loan Fund on which Lauren Post had been co-signer. A money order is on its way. He compares the battle of Pearl Harbor to a football game. He does not enjoy being his battery's censor of letters written in candlelight like this one.
