Still on the train heading to Fresno (and his basic training), Tom describes his interaction with the USO.
Dear Folks,
This heading includes everyone but it saves room. We will be in Albuquerque, N Mex. in alittle while + I think they will mail these then. It is hard to write on this train.
The country is really beautiful. Last night it snowed but we were up to about 8,000 ft. + this morning we saw many snow colored mountains, however, it is now nice + warm out and a swell day.
All we have been doing is sleeping + eating.
Every time we stop at the USO meets the train + passes out post cards, matches, cookies + candy. This life of leisure will change when we reach Fresno.
How did Karen like the car ride?
Love, Tom
