Davis, Jerry C.
Davis crossed out the address at the top of his stationery that has a line drawing of a tank. His division is marked "censored" for purposes of the Aztec News Letter. They have been in "rugged" training in heat, and he wishes he were "back in San Diego." His brother Chuck is on the Coast Guard cutter Campbell, which ran into a German U-Boat in the North Atlantic. He hasn't heard from Chuck, but the progress of the cutter is covered in the press.
