If you were wondering if Eddie ever got his watch, here is your answer! Enjoy reading, and take a look at the WWII photos page this week, where I've posted some photos of Edmund with his buddy Teddy Wiesenthal. Click on "comments" above to add your thoughts and/or memories! Dear Mom,
I hope you’re well, also the girls. Friday, I received the wrist watch, and it’s a honey. It’s just what I wanted. I was afraid that it had been lost, and I was greatly relieved when it arrived. I want to thank you, Rose, and Ida for that beautiful timepiece. To-day Roses letter of the 29th came, and I see you were also worried about the watch. I couldn’t write the day it came, because I went out to celebrate New Year’s Eve. I went to Wilmington, N.C. with Ted Wiesenthal, and we had a nice time. It was an occasion for a double celebration because that day we found out that we had been promoted. Yes, I am now a Sgt, and it gives me great pleasure to write and tell you of it. That means 12 more rocks per month, and with flight pay, it makes pretty good “kush“. Nothing new to report at this time, to I’ll close. Give my regards to the family. Love, Ed P.S. The past two days I’ve had a yearning for some salami. Do you have a few extra ration points? P.S. #2 Thanks again for the watch.
