Am getting the first real rest since I enlisted.  Spent two weeks at 
the second hospital.  Nothing else to spend and nothing to do.  Now in 
a rest camp with even more rest.  Will be out in a couple of weeks.  If 
my mail starts to follow me around, it will be a long time catching up.  
No nurses here.  Nobody sorry.  Too fussy.  Don't stop writing so I 
will get them all about the time I reach the company.  Rob.
