 "...Today makes a year since I was last in 
              that old country called the States. One year of fun, heartbreak and 
              thrills. A year older and a year in a sense kind of wasted. As far 
              as gaining I have in many ways. Found that while in school Geography 
              was a very boring subject. Now I've learned more about these countries 
              than I did in school. Know a heck of a lot more about coastlines anyhow. 
              Boy! who would of ever thought that while in school that they'd visit 
              some of the countries they were so bored with in school. Incidentally, 
              I have a kick coming two ways about Germany. Stood in after school 
              cause I didn't have my nightwork on it, and now because Germany keeps 
              me up some nights with their nightwork...(Air Raids)..."
