that lays out the attacks and etc.
Well Al Alcock is a pretty wise bird and a fine boy to if you know how to
take him and he seen right off what I was getting at in my article and
its true Al that the 2 games is like the other and quick thinking is what
wins in both of them. But I am not looking for no staff job that you don't
half to go up in the trenchs and fight but just lay around in some office
somewheres and stick pins in a map while the rest of the boys is sticking
bayonets in the Dutchmen's maps so I hope they don't none of the gens. see
what I wrote because I come over here to fight and be a soldier and carry a
riffle instead of a pin cushion.
But it don't hurt nothing for me to give them a few hints once in a wile
about useing their brains if they have got them and if I can do any good
with my articles in the papers why I would just as leaf wear my fingers to
the bone writeing them up.
Your pal, JACK.
