On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n         [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n         1942, he was at \n         Camp Pickett, Virginia, the location of\n         new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         Walt Disneyand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         Italy. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         North Africa, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n         when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n         Pacific; mentioned casting his vote for\n         Roosevelt; and being sent to \n         Romein charge of a group of men going\n         there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n         of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         Naplesfor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n         January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n         petroleum.","Letters, 1926-1947, from \n         Edwin Hanson Sanders(1871-1948), and\n         related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n         There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n         Shipton Kincannon Curran Sanders(his\n         mother) to \n         William E.

On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n         [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n         1942, he was at \n         Camp Pickett, Virginia, the location of\n         new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         Walt Disneyand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         Italy. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         North Africa, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n         when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n         Pacific; mentioned casting his vote for\n         Roosevelt; and being sent to \n         Romein charge of a group of men going\n         there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n         of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         Naplesfor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n         January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n         petroleum.","Letters, 1926-1947, from \n         Edwin Hanson Sanders(1871-1948), and\n         related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n         There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n         Shipton Kincannon Curran Sanders(his\n         mother) to \n         William E.

On March 20, he\n         wrote that he arrived at his assigned post and was living in a\n         private home and described life there. His letter of July 20,\n         1943 mentioned that the foods were similar, such as new\n         potatoes, beans, tomatoes, corn, chicken, and watermelon. On\n         July 31, 1944, he has heard good news and broadcasts about the\n         Germans and Japanese. On November 28, 1944, he wrote that he\n         has been moved to a new station; and, on March 20, 1945, he\n         wrote that he is awaiting orders to go home. He wrote, from \n         Miami Beach, Florida, on May 18, 1945,\n         that the war was over, that he has finished processing and is\n         awaiting a new assignment, that some materials are being\n         released, such as tires, and that there is a possibility of an\n         increase in gas allowance. During June through August 1945, he\n         wrote from \n         Stuttgart, Arkansas, concerning work and\n         continuing studies under the G.I. Bill.

On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n         [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n         1942, he was at \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eCamp Pickett, Virginia\u003c/geogname\u003e, the location of\n         new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         \u003cpersname\u003eWalt Disney\u003c/persname\u003eand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eItaly\u003c/geogname\u003e. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eNorth Africa\u003c/geogname\u003e, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n         when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n         \u003cgeogname\u003ePacific\u003c/geogname\u003e; mentioned casting his vote for\n         Roosevelt; and being sent to \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eRome\u003c/geogname\u003ein charge of a group of men going\n         there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n         of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eNaples\u003c/geogname\u003efor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home.

On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n         [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n         1942, he was at \n         Camp Pickett, Virginia, the location of\n         new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         Walt Disneyand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         Italy. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         North Africa, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944.

There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         Naplesfor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home.

On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n         [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n         1942, he was at \n         Camp Pickett, Virginia, the location of\n         new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         Walt Disneyand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         Italy. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         North Africa, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n         when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n         Pacific; mentioned casting his vote for\n         Roosevelt; and being sent to \n         Romein charge of a group of men going\n         there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n         of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         Naplesfor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n         January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n         petroleum.","Letters, 1926-1947, from \n         Edwin Hanson Sanders(1871-1948), and\n         related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n         There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n         Shipton Kincannon Curran Sanders(his\n         mother) to \n         William E.

During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         \u003cpersname\u003eWalt Disney\u003c/persname\u003eand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eItaly\u003c/geogname\u003e. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eNorth Africa\u003c/geogname\u003e, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n         when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n         \u003cgeogname\u003ePacific\u003c/geogname\u003e; mentioned casting his vote for\n         Roosevelt; and being sent to \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eRome\u003c/geogname\u003ein charge of a group of men going\n         there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n         of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eNaples\u003c/geogname\u003efor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n         January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n         petroleum.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eLetters, 1926-1947, from \n         \u003cpersname\u003eEdwin Hanson Sanders\u003c/persname\u003e(1871-1948), and\n         related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n         There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n         \u003cpersname\u003eShipton Kincannon Curran Sanders\u003c/persname\u003e(his\n         mother) to \n         \u003cpersname\u003eWilliam E.
