One of my non coms is a Pommy, and an ex seaman.
France is rotten to the core in that respect he says.
He mentioned one incident where one of his company
approached a lovely young lass standing outside a brothel
in the Red Light district. She was terribly insulted &
called a gendarme. The gendarme explained she was
no 'Mrs Warren' but was only waiting for her fiancee to
have his horizontal amusement inside. Wouldn't it?

I have been making constant use of my wallet
Nance and it's looks good as ever. I'm afraid there is
little I can suggest. A cigarette lighter is useful & magazines
are very welcome if you must buy something honey. Thanks
ever so much for the parcels you posted. Some letter
we get as quicky as 7 days & seldom does delivery
take longer than three weeks.

Pearl Harbour Anniversary is also today. I
wonder if they did the invasions we've been hoping
for. It means ever so much to Mr & Mrs Hooper's future.
I read Gary Cooper's comments on New Guinea. "He thinks
that conditions here are far worse than anything he
has conceived. He is proud to be an American now
that he has seen the Americans in the South Pacific".
Poor Gary - iron man of movie fans. How his heart
must bleed. The reason he painted such a picture
was to play up to his public and the troops he visited.
Pity he didn't come to a forward area instead of
giving people that impression. He's gone up a lot
in my estimation as an actor.
