THE PRIVATE PAPERS
OF PRIVATE PURKEY
Dear Ma—
Every day they are checking out
a bunch of us refugees from soft
beds under them
new rules releas
ing jeeps who are
married, or 28
years old, or
needed at home,
but they are still
passing me up
like I was the
army’s choice for permanent K P
duty. I look and feel more like a
hardship case than most of the
crumb hunters who are being re
leased and I keep telling the officers
that I am no more use to the army
than if I was married on account
of I am in love.
• • •
Every time I argue that I am
needed at home they just laugh at
me so I gess they must have in
vestigated and found out that I al
ways let you and pop bring up the
coal and wood and was not no
help to speak of. When I think of
how I used to squawk about tending
the furnace it makes me sick all
over. Believe me ma if I ever get
out of this and back in my own
home I will think it a priverlage to
tend the furnace.
• • •
It makes me soar to see a lot of
boys being released every day. But
they certainly get checked up on and
three days before they go they get
a complete going over by the doc
tors again. I can’t figure this out
unless they want to be sure no jeep
gets out of the army in any better
shape than he was when he came
in. I asked Sergeant Mooney and
he said it was the rules that every
soldier must be exactly like he was
when he was accepted. Hd" said one
reason why I could not get out was
that I was in such lousy shape when
I reached camp that it would be im
possible for a army to ever get me
back in the same condition again.
• • •
Otto Bixby. thought he was going
to be released and he was all set
and everything but after the med
ical inspection he was told he wood
have to stay in the army. The rec
ords of admission showed he had
four teeth missing when he got in
and they don’t check with the fact
he has six missing now. They won’t
accept his explanashun how he
lost the other two.
They just finished a big athletic
field for us at this camp and we
got a regimental
football team on
witch I am trying
out for the re
serves. In the
first scrimmage I
got a sprained
ankul, two broken
toes, a dislocated
arm, a soar back and two teeth
knocked out but I still do not feel
no worse after it all than I do when
I get back from a manoover.
• • •
I asked Sergeant Mooney how I
done and he said I must of attracted
attenshun becuz he knew the army
was scouting the game and he saw
a scout looking at me and saying
he never saw anybody play the kind
of game I did.
• • •
Well, I will close now with lots
of love.
Your son,
, Oscar.
P.S.—I wish you would ask Nellie
Petersen to write me oftener than
three times a week.

It is culture by way of the firing

Chiefly in Peace!
All real and wholesome enjoy
ments possible to man have been
just as possible to him since first
he was made of the earth, as they
are now; and they are possible to
him chiefly in peace.
To watch the com grow and the
blossoms set; to draw hard breath
over ploughshare or spade; to
read, to hope, to pray—these are
the things that make men happy;
they have always had the power of
doing these, they never will have
power to do more. The world’s
prosperity or adversity depends
on our knowing and teaching
these things.—John Ruskin.
Jewel of Soul
A good name in man or woman
is the immediate jewel of their
