Carl, thank you for posting my note to you. If anyone is interested in contacting a soldier here is the information for my son:
Friends of Chris Day...
Just talked to Chris. He was exhausted. He's moving from the 5 star FOB in Salerno to a VERY primitive base called Sharona PRT. Once there (in 4 days) he will be sleeping in tents until they build themselves better accommadations. Right now he is working on a road that links Orgun-E to Sharona. Orgun-E is on the map without the -E. He says there is no PX or ANY nice things. It is VERY DIRTY and VERY SMELLY. There are hot showers but he says they are DISGUSTING. There is NO SNACK FOOD so PLEASE get the care packages moving. There is no landing strip so the mail, etc arrives by chopper. Food is MRE's.
He's working "outside the wire" now so please keep the prayers coming.
Here's the address:
PFC Day, Christopher F.
TF 864th Eng. Bn.
Sharona PRT
APO, AE 09354
Thanks,
Clark
