July 21, 1945

Dear Bill,

Received your letters of July 7^th and all is well. Helen borrowed my 35MM camera and I’ve written her to send it to you. I’ll shop around and get another one for myself. So far the only one I’ve seen was eastman kodak but that’s too much money. I have secured film and am sending you enough for at least 400 pictures. Let me know whether you want more and if you do, I’ll send it along. There is enough left out of the $25 you’re sending to buy film for another 500 to 550 pictures but I didn’t get any more because I figured I might just be flooding you with the stuff.

I haven’t received your letter on UNRRA but I have been advised that no openings are available at present no that’s out. Maybe it’s just as well.

Now about your leave? Are you going to England or better France? I just came back from a ten day furlough as rather 10 days shortened to 7. Didn’t do much except take a trip to Atlantic City.

The Port is sure changing, de-barks About my day and nothing much else. Personnel is being shifted and pretty soon I’ll be the old-timer of the place.

Harry
