Word has been received that Fred Stowell, now in the Marine corps, is stationed in South Carolina.

Pvt. Charles (Fred) Stowell, son of the Floyd Stowells, who is stationed with the marines at Parris Island, S.C., writes:

Sorry I haven't written before, but I have been very busy. We are through at the rifle range and are at the main base now--arrived here last night. Our schedule has been changed and I won't get a furlough until March 13. I got the cigarettes and $5.

I am getting along O.K. I received a letter from Aunt Laura and 2 from Aunt Julia which I have not had time to answer yet.
