I have read, in the issues of the local paper you havo so -gracious ly sent me, the letters of appre ciation sent by other m§n from Palmyra in the service; I wish to add my thanks to theirs. Many of us are quite far from homo, but our home friends mean a great deal to us, and news about, and from them is most welcome. Our regiment is l’&ther fortunate in that we didn’t go south for maneuvers and didn’t have to put up with the hardships involved. W e did, however, go to Norfolk, Va., \for ten days to guard that' city against an imaginary air at tack. The army and navy air for ces aided us in the- problem,- and according to reports, the 74th made a very good showing.
