Letter to Poss. This is the last preserved letter from Buzzy. It is dated June 24, 1918. He was killed in action on July 28.
Mostly he talks about not receiving mail from persons he has written to: Poss. ?Why don?t you write to me some time.... You owe me a letter for more than a month.?
Sylvest. ?Tell him to write me some time. Ask him if he got the letters I
wrote to him.?
Virginia. ?Ask her if she got the letter I sent her in March.?
Obilque references to hot and heavy battle:
1.	Tell West ?I would love to have had him with me three weeks ago.?
2.	?I would like to tell you all the news for the past month I have seen quite a bit of scrapping. Tell you about it some day.? Then he adds ?may be.?
