Lt. Ray Bvans, October 20, 1945 ; 2

On April 24, 1945 I wrote you thanking you for writing
me regerding Cpl. James Kane whose address was and perhaps
is 8838 South Morgan Street, Chieago, Illinois. I wrote
Cpl. Kene and did not hear from him. Here is the paragraph
I wrote you:

“There is hardly a day passes that some fellow on Mass-
achusetts Street doesn't say, ‘Won't you be glad to have
Charlie Black and Ray Svans back? And »ou know what my answer
is - a big affirmative YS, with an exclamation! One of the
boys at the jost Office said thet he saw Charlie's dad who
said that Charlie had earned a citation. He only has six more
missions, they say, until he has a chances, at least, for a
short furlough. Well, we are hoping.”

I want to tell you that Charlie Balek is in Sioux City,
I@wa now awaiting his release. He mother drove down to
Coffeyville to get his wife and baby girl last week.
