1944: Jan: Soviets lift siege of Leningrad; U. S. forces land at Anzio, Italy; U.S. 5th crosses Garigliano River, Italy; U. S. assault on Marshall Islands begins; Feb: Soviet troops enter Estonia; Allies attack Monte Cassino, Italy; Big Week bombing of ball bearing and German fighter planes plants; Soviets big victory in Ukraine; U.S. landing on Kwajalein Atoll, Marshall Is.; and Japanese launch offensive in Burma.
We have arrived at the boat basin in Oceanside, CA. Food is outstanding and word is that after a few weeks training we will be deployed somewhere in the South Pacific.
We have every other night off to go to Oceanside or? And an unwritten rule allows us to go through a tied apart fence to take in Oceanside or? on the nights we don't have official liberty! So, the result is we get every night off! We just have to keep our noses clean and don't do anything to embarrass us or the military. I'm phoning Marion!
When Marion heard I get every night off, plus weekends she put in for 2 weeks vacation! Sounds good to me. She has been approved and will arrive within two or three days!
