Letter Tells
Of Guinea
The life of an American soldier
on New Guinea is vividly des
cribed in a letter written by Glen
A. Eaton, Portland, Oregon, to
his friends, Mr. and Mrs. Max
Peabody, of this city. Interest
ing comparisons can be made
with similar conditions in Alas
ka, especially in regard to the
mosquitos. Excerpts follow:
“Great spot this,lots of excite
ment, never a dull moment. Have
been here nearly four months
and it’s begining to get the best
of us. We fight the tropics and
the Japs come with it. But don't
underestimate the little yellow
bastards—they showed (show)
us plenty.
“Have lots of souvenirs! Hope
to get them home Rifle, 25 cal.
Tommy gun, money, helmet,
knives, watches, teeth (gold) etc.
Good hunting if you have a
strong stomach.
I have been working with the
Aussies for the last 2 months and
they are a great bunch. Modesty
doesn’t half describe them and
they are real fighters.
“Great bunch of fellows here.
N. Yo'kers. Oregonians, Mont
anans, nearly all the states rep
resented. Getting rugged as hell
and hard as nails. Can sleep on
a forked stick, eat anything (even
corned beef and stew) nothing
makes me ill. Food is filling but
not much variety. Ours is one of
the finest examples of any Army
mess you will ever see.
“When we eat we yell before
every bite to give the bugs and
insects a chance to move out.
Beat our beds to drive out the
snakes—then holler ‘Ready or
not I’m coming in.’ The mosquit
os are so big and bad that we
drafted them into the Army to
control ’em Several landed at
an air strip near here and the
ground crew, who were extra
busy trvmg to get “top cover”
aloft—put 20 gallons of gas in
them thinking they were Airco
bras...”
