Diamond informs Estelle he has just been appointed Company orientation officer, a position that entails preparing lectures and aid in making the "American soldier the best informed soldier in the world." He writes that the topic for the following day will be U.S. foreign policy, yet voices frustration at the fact that "the government has yet to express a clearcut and definite policy."
