Paris
August 26, 1945
V-Mail
Dear Mom,
After much difficulty I finally got here. Had to wait from Sunday until Friday at the airfield to get a plane. They I didn't get one as far as Paris, but rode with some WACS and a couple of officers on a special plane to Compiegne. From there we rode a mail truck in a wild ride which served only to give me a infected right eye from the dust. It's been very sore and bothered so much that I couldn't enjoy doing anything. I've had it treated now and it is coming along quite well, but is still very inflamed and runny.
Starting tomorrow, I hope to get to see a few of the things I missed before.
For the past few days the French have been celebrating the liberation of Paris last year. They've had street days in various sections of the town, parades (which I have missed) and last night a dance and celebration in the Opera House which lasted until six this morning.
Bob
