Letter, 1945 Feb. 5
Scope and Contents
Addressed to Hochberg in Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. From Bill Klein in Maplewood, New Jersey. Stationery printed with “Orange Screen Company” letterhead. Klein says he and Hochberg have been friends since being born on the same day in the same hospital, and he is excited that they will be able to legally drink soon. Klein writes about friends of theirs fighting or training in Italy, England, Luxembourg, and Greenland, describing their experiences and the last time he has heard from them. One friend in Greenland is not coping well with his isolated location. Klein asks for Hochberg’s hat size so his father can get him an officer’s hat when he finishes training.
