Letters from Janet C. Bryan to Parents, October 4, 1943-October 31, 1943

Containers:

14.0026 - Box 1, Folder 008

Scope and content:

This folder contains eight letters postmarked from Morro Bay and Lawton, and two postcards postmarked from Tuscan and Fort Worth. The Bryans are given a one week notice that Ray will be attending Survey school in Fort Sill, Okalahoma for one month. These letters are an example both of the difficulty in procuring housing on short notice and of the isolation felt by Janet as she again loses the familiarity of another home and friends. They receive news that the 74th Field Artillery Battalion is back in Camp Roberts and has once again changed groups for the fourth time in 5 months. It is understood that this was done to delay going overseas; previous to changing groups they were A2 on the priority list to recieve overseas equipment, now they are B2.
