The last few letters have had this return address. Note that it now includes "A.T. Co." (or Anti-tank Company), which is the unit he served for the duration. He mentions the distinctions between division, regiment and company in this letter.
Dated Oct. 27, 1943; postmarked Nov. 4.
Dear Folks,
I am well, happy and safe and I hope you all are the same.
I received a couple of birthday cards from Bib and Rosemarie and although they’re a little late, they are still welcome.
I didn’t receive any packages or letters from Vince or Mr. Morgan yet, but I’m still sweating them out.
