You will never know how great amount of comfort it has already giv- en me, as a protection from severe cold weather, and as a memory of friends at home, also making great sacrifices, that our country may be victorious in its fight, and that the {:{en may have all the comfort possi- e. It is a stremuous life here, just the thing to build a fellow up anq make him able to stand the hardships of shipboard, and I hope that I may be able to do a little bit in helping the big victory along. I sincerely thank you. one and all, again, for your gift, and you may be sure I will think of you often when on guard duty. If any of you have dme, a letter would be a Godsend; any little news of the home town. May God bless you all is my ear- nest wish, and may you all have a Merry Christmas.
