Subject	Relations between the sexes Cultural relations Military life Military training Military facilities Homesickness
Description	Harry tells Mim that he is grateful to get so many letters from her and is very upset that he does not receive letters from his friends at the Youth Theatre. Describes his new quarters, which he shares with two friends. The three roommates purchased food and had snacks that remind Harry of food from Camp Kinderland. Harry apologizes for not being able to send a photograph to Mim, especially not one of him and a "senorita on his lap." He tells her to disregard the rumours that the men in Spain are fraternizing with the local women; Harry writes that the profolactics handed out on the first day are used to hold tobacco. Harry alludes to the homosexual leanings of some of the troops, having been so long without women. He is unsure when he will go to the front, but is confident in his training. Harry reports on his friends and why they haven't written to Mim. Asks her to drink a chocolate malted milk on Sixth Avenue and write back describing how it tastes.
