Summary

This letter was written from Horace W. Rinearson, in France, to George M. Verity. Rinearson describes how the war effort is going, and how glad they are to be doing reserve work, with a chance of being on the front, although they'd rather be attached to a division. All of the Section 646 men are fine, except Al Preyer, who is still hospitalized with pleurisy, and Corporal Stephen Pell, the resident poet of Section 646, who will be hospitalized for another six weeks due to his foot injury. Rinearson notes that Section 646 stands a good chance of being awarded another citation for its work in action. He encloses a picture of Newman "Bud" Ebersole in this letter. Rinearson also shares that he has been made a Corporal. This letter is a mimeographed reproduction. The original content of the letter was typed out and copied by ARMCO. Copies of this and other correspondence were then generally distributed to friends and family members of the ARMCO Ambulance Corps, and to ARMCO employees.
