Dear Folks:
            Oklahoma, here I am. Got here this afternoon after nearly 4 days on the road. Waited in Ft. Worth 12 hrs. and stayed part of a nite in Vernon, Texas. As to what kind of town Frederick is, all I can say is the bus slowed down and we got off. Arlan’s town has nothing on this one. Ha! But the field is pretty nice what I’ve seen so far. We live in tar-paper huts and they do have anchor cables on them. Don’t know what the deal is yet. They are changing over to B-25 here and we may get sent to San Antonio for the instructors course there. Hope you sent my clothes. All for now.
