World War 2: Episode 67: June 22-24th, 1945

This episode focuses on the correspondence from an U.S. Army Captain in the 489th Armored Field Artillery Battalion, 7th Armored Division, in Germany to his wife in Three Oaks, Michigan.   The battalion won the afternoon softball and volleyball games from the 23rd Armored Infantry Battalion by scores of 6 to 1 and 2 to 0.    I’ve never seen so much carrying on as there is going on now.  Officers are worse than the men, I believe.  At least the men aren’t so open with it. We get a rubber issued each month for the men.  Well honey they have used up ½ of July's issue already.  Don’t mention this to people at home.  It's just as good they don’t know exactly what goes on.
