dc.description.transcriptionRaiford Fla. 11 Nov. 45 Dearest Smith, I was sure glad to get your letter. I am doing fine and having a big time. I haven't drinked a bottle of beer since I have been in the States, the whiskey tastes too good. I'm sorry I didn't get to see you in Frisco but they rushed us through pretty fast and I didn't get up town but two nights but I really had a good time. Those Frisco dames are really nice. Got a card from Crayton he is getting a divorce. They are keeping me so busy here running around meeting everybody till I hardly have time to turn around. If you get time run down here will you? I'm pretty sure you will have a good time. My folks heard from your Grandparents and they were very glad to hear from them. Tell them that everybody said "Hello." Everybody here is in good health and feeling fine. If you can't come down right away let me know how you are doing. Take it easy partner. Your Pal Jack D. Jack Bradley Raiford Fla. M/Sgt. Smith L. Green Broken Bow Okla.
