McAnulty, Wallace M.
McAnulty lists some changes for his men and says everyone "from San Diego really felt the death of Milky Phelps." Norman Herkeroth and George Traub played basketball with him at Hoover High School. McAnulty writes that they have been eating so many bananas that he begins to "peel like one." He knows they will miss "the Pun of picking" all the fruit. He applied to take photographs of their surroundings and is going to apply for flight training.
