Description
In this letter, written on a Monday morning in March 1941, Glenn informs his family that his military unit's departure has been delayed until the 31st. He describes being relocated back to East Garrison with better food and conditions. He recounts a late-night fire at North Garrison, likely caused by a careless guard, and mentions ongoing investigations. Glenn expresses continued good spirits, notes missing a chance to see Mary Stuart, thanks his family for the money sent, and encourages friends to write soon before his rescheduled departure.
