Letter Description: V Mails written to his parents in Dallas, Texas. Four of them are remarkable drawings he made. He was a graduate architect from Texas A&M. The fifth is a somewhat poignant letter to his father, saying that he is alive and well and that he had in fact killed some enemy soldiers. He was soon to be wounded, five weeks before the end of the war in Europe.
