This episode revolves around World War 2 correspondence from a U.S. Army Captain in Germany to his wife in Michigan. Lt. Col Milner went over the subject of non-fraternization, and looting, and explained the Div Commanders policy in this matter. You remember me telling you I found a hotel basement with all kinds of liquor in it. Well Milner gave me the okay to get some for the men. I got one bottle per man and gave it out yesterday. Well last night all hell broke loose. I’m still in my old spot. The house with hot & cold running water and my very soft bed. If I stay here very much longer I’m going to become a civilian.
