Dear Folks

The fruit trees are in bloom. You see palm trees and bamboo trees and see large graph vine yards as this part of the country is all they raise. There is an old castle here built in 1400 I am going out to see

I got some oysters off a Frenchwoman so am going to have oyster stew tomorrow. We expect to start for home next month. We are a short way from Bordeaux where we sail from. So you see we will be home soon. When I came fromm the hospital I wne to mans where the 26 division is now. I have been about all over France from the northern part to the southern part
