dc.description.transcription	Hello Paul, I'm sorry I haven't written sooner but we have been pretty busy. I'm a student here at the Infantry School in the communications course. I'm taking a special course in tank radios instead of wire. The rest of the course is the same as infantry. I'm am doing fine but don't like the country much. The chow is lousy. The fort is 9 miles S.E. of Columbus, Ga. Well pal write soon. Your buddy Smith L Green Infantry School Det. Ga. Paul J. Nelson Hq. Co. 29th Inf. Ft Sill, Oklahoma
