By Tanesse Sells Wonder Lake Boj Writes Home About Pelham Woodward, son of Mr. and Mrs. M. C. Woodward, Wonder Woods, has been stationed in Austria for some time. O^e of his interesting letters was in this column some months ago. A recent one tells of a trip to Munich. It goes as follows: " Got a three-day pass Friday so I decided to go up to Munich, Germany. Got up there about 2:30 Friday afternoon. "Munich sure impressed me. The difference between Germany and Austria is the difference between night and day. Munich is like any American town except for a few things such as bombedout buildings, the lingo, etc. Over 80 per cent of Munich was gutted. And you can still see it But with American money and help the Germans have done a good job of rebuilding. Still Gutted Oat "But all Nazi buildings not taken over by the army are still gutted out and are nothing but shells. You can see where Hitler had his government in Munich. " They have two very nice service clubs in Munich and the best E. M. club I've ever seen. "I also went on many tours. "The German stores stocked with all kinds of merchandise and the people seem happy and content and believe me if I could get assigned to EUCOM (Europe or Germany) I would* jump at the chance for It is good duty all over Europe except Austria. I can't describe what we put up with here in USFA but it's worse than basic for a bunch of old GIs. ------ Saw Caravan "Saw the Camel caravan while Luxurious M0UT0N LAMB At an Unbelievable Low Price!

"Saturday morning took a tour of Munich itself and saw most of the town. It was a good tour, but my afternoon was ruined by the second tour. "Have you ever heard the word. 'Dauchau?' Maybe if you think for awhile you will remember it was one of the infamous Nazi concentration camps. The word 'Dauchau' doesn't sound like much but it meant death to over 200,000 people by murder. They haVe a very lovely crematory of six ovens and a shower room with poison gas complete. And outside they have a nice blood trough where the SS shot people. The trough was so the SS would not get* blood on their boots and the blood was very deep. Grew of Thousands "Also there was a grave 6x6x30 feet and there was a simple stone wit]) the Inscription, 'Grave Of Unknown Thousands.' "There were other such graves and I want you folks back home to bear In mind that in 'East' today there are five such places but only three or four times as bad aa the Nazis were. "Also bear in mind if America should ever fall or stumble there will be such places at home anc it won't be people of anothei country, race, or creed but you and your neighbors. Got Booklet It's not a pleasant thought but it's a reality and I offer a prayer to God to forbid it. I got a little booklet at Dauchau and will send It home for you to see and think about And I know that this won't sit well with ypu, Mom. for you are too good to think or even comprehend such things.. "1 don't believe what I saw because my mind never thought such things happened. But it is real and everyone must think of these things for us to remain free." Pel goes on to thana his parents for a package he received and to tell them how much he likes to hear from home. In a letter, received as this goes to press, Pel writes that he has been made a corporal.
