Sgt. Joe D. Szenasi Writes from Italy to T. D. Call
Italy, April 6, 1944
Dear Mr. Call:
How is everything there by now? Sorry haven’t written sooner, but have been pretty busy. Time really passes quick. Been overseas almost eight months. How are all the folks and everyone getting along? Tell everyone hello. I’ve seen Al Walla and Pleas Whisenhunt and Bennett Freeny over here; really swell to see them. They’re on the Anzio beachhead now. Suppose everything going pretty lively around Caddo. How is everyone at the bank getting along? Tell them all hello. What’s the news around there? Write me as soon as possible as I really miss letters from you all. Tell Mr. Conner hello and Mr. McIntosh. A Friend, David
