Well gen. without no bragging myself up I learned a whole lot about
stragety on the baseball field and I think I could help you in a good many
ways but before I tried to tell you how to do something I would half to
know what you was trying to do and of course I know you can't tell me in
a letter on acct. of the censors and of course they are Americans to but
they's a whole lot of the boys that don't mean no harm but they are gabby
and can't keep their mouth shut and who knows who would get a hold of it
and for the same reason I don't feel like I should give you any of my
idears by mail but if I could just see you and we could have a little talk
and talk things over but I don't suppose they's any chance of that unless I
could get leave off to run down to Paris for a wile and meet you somewheres
but they won't give us no leave to go to Paris but of course a letter from
you that I could show it to Capt. Seeley would fix it up and no questions
asked.
So I guess I better wait till I hear from you along these lines and in the
mean wile I will be thinking the situation over and see what I can think up
and I all ready got some idears that I feel like they would work out O. K.
and I hope I will get a chance in the near future to have a little chat
with you.
I note what you say about our name being both Jack and I was thinking to
myself that lots of times in a poker game a pair of jacks is enough to win
and maybe it will be the same way in the war game and any way I guess the
2 of us could put up a good bluff and bet them just as if we had them.
