Feel the connection and support of the citizens and families back home with sons and neighbors who went off to war."I don't like to work on Sunday, but I am in the Army now and not behind the plow." -- Roy Hensley"Well, I have sure got three good friends: my 45, my gas mask, and steel hat. My hat protects my head, my mask - my lungs, and my 45 gets the Hun." -- Ira Stout"Last night there was a German airplane come down close enough to the ground that you could have hit him with a rock..." -- Frank Hoover"I had the influenza and oh, boy, it sure got my goat. There has been over a thousand of the boys here died." -- James Cameron"Things are higher here than milk was when the cow jumped over the moon." -- Marvin H. DennisLetters, the primary form of communication during The Great War, kept our soldiers present in their families' lives. The letters carried home tales of war, minus the details.
