Some interesting excerpts from this letter follows “Things are moving fast and men are wagering on arrival dates for the Philippines. The wagering isnt idle talk. Men who have helped push the Japs this far, know them for what they are (plenty tough.) “As for me, I wouldn't trade one of the most worthless acres in Indiana for all the islands in the Pacific, that is, if I had to live on them. I am sure that a lot of boys will have a greater appreciation of the U. S. A when they return. I hope their political interests and abilities will exceed that of their fathers’.” Anyone interested in writing Captain Rinker will be able to get his address from Rex Thorlton.

I want to say that I enjoyed my visit with the ones of you I got to see while I was there in November. I guess by this time you are having that good old Indiana winter weather and lots of snow. I'm enjoying the hot weather of the South West Pacific as I'm some* where in New Guinea. I now have about the best sun tan I’ve ever had in my life. 3've been on the beach a few times with a recreation party and gotten a few coconuts, bananas, and pineapples and I enjoyed that very milch. I think that I've gained a little weight since I left the states this las time. Well as there is not much else I have or can say so I’ll close. ■lust a Sailor Friend, Clifton Wayne Priest U. S. N.
