Replies to Bartlett's letter. Reports that there was little snow but has yet to see blossoms and apple trees, of which Benvenuto was told are in abundance. Mentions the 27th Division's parade and writes that he and his fellow soldiers are going to put on a Wild West show that will rival Barnum and Bailey's. Describes the houses in the countryside and the old ruins along the Rhine River. Written on American Expeditionary Forces letterhead.
