One letter from Jack Gerber to Dorothy Kowasky dated October 16, 1941. Jack starts his letter by vividly describing where he is (the company day room) what is happening there, and what he is wearing. Jack goes on to write that he got his honorable discharge and enlisted in the Air Corps. In a few weeks he will start basic training to become a machinist. Jack also gives a detailed breakdown of what his daily schedule is, including the times and menus for all the meals. Jack also tells Dorothy that he would appreciate her keeping her calendar open on the 25th of October.
