Forest Duane Hunsley Letters to Mother, Paula Hunsley, 1941-1942 11.0061 - Box 1, Folder 03

Folder contains letters to his mother and other family members describing the often unrelenting work of ground crews at the time he was stationed in Almeda, CA, before transferring to the USSLexington. Mostly family talk, he does recall little commentary on the state of Pearl Harbor when stationed in Hawaii and the Battle of Coral Sea but refrains from going into detail about the battle in the letter to his mother. Light talk of work at sea before his carrier sank, he survives and gets transferred to New Caledonia, where he feels as if he was forgotten due to the idleness from returning to the states.
