Episode 42: January 28th - February 2nd, 1945

World War 2 letters from a U.S. Army Captain in Belgium to his wife in Michigan.   The battalion remained comfortable billeted in homes on the outskirts of Verviers.  The weather was warm and the snow that had covered all the countryside rapidly disappeared.   I could think of a dozen different ways to spend the afternoon if I was home.  I believe that best would be laying in the middle of the living room floor, keeping warm.  And for sure I bet you wouldn’t be there with me.  You would get yourself rolled up in a chair knitting or reading, and probably listening to the radio also.  Just the same I’ll be damn glad when all that can happen.
