Dear Miss Enes,

In reply to your letter of March 28 in regard to the above named soldier, we have contacted Sgt. Moss and find that he is in good health, good spirits, and on active duty.  His commanding officer says there is no reason to worry about either the soldier’s morale or his health.

There are many men here who have been overseas three years, but there is a good possibility that those with combat experience will soon get an opportunity to return home.

If we can be of further service, please let us know.

Very truly yours,

Willis H. Bowen
Assistant Field Director
