Camp Curtin

Dear Kate
We are here and all right. The boys are all well that came from our place. This afternoon we were put before the medical examiner. Came through all right. I had not much of an idea how war looked till I got here. We have just eat our supper. We had enough to eat and that's good enough for any body. The boys feel good to night. Its dark Write soon Direct to Camp Curtin care of Capt Dwight.
