10 December 1952
"We got three new fellows to day in the division...Now I have to find space for them to have a bunk and a locker. It seems that Gerdes is always wanted every where at all times...We got 70 bags of mail today. Yes, I said 70 bags. But I think it's all packages and newspapers...maybe that package that you sent me will be in this group...I wrote to Cdr. Bowler in Philadelphia the other day asking him to try and find out when I could expect my shore duty. I think that my orders are being held up...I sure do wish that he could help me out on that."
