Couvrette, John F.
Couvrette describes his situation in the South Pacific as much as he is allowed. He responds to Lauren Post's call for information about James Routh, who died of wounds. Couvrette would like to know what happened to Routh's brother Robert. He sends news of his brother Albert and ends with a postscript that "We are now allowed to say that we are in New Guinea." Couvrette keeps the airplanes in good repair.
