Dear Jay,
These pictures are very appropriate and more truth than art.
There’s one guy in the outfit we call “Ratchet _” because his hips fly out of joint while he’s marching.
We are supposed to get guns next week. Just that much more work before inspection Saturday mornings.
I haven’t seen any home knitted sweaters but the army issue is just as bad. We have a saying, there’s two ways of doing things, the right way and the Army way.
With love, Wayne
