TRANSCRIBED FROM THE DAILY ARKANSAS GAZETTE JANUARY 24, 1919 P. 2
Our flag is still floating just like it did when we first landed, and we still raise our hats to the good old Red, White and Blue. Well, we never got the kaiser but it was not our fault; he got the habit of running just like the rest of the Huns, and ran into Holland. I would like to have gone on to Berlin just to see where the meanest man on earth lived. Now I am longing to hear the whistle blow to get on board the good old ship that will carry me home.
NOTES: This partial letter was written by Charlie Judge to his parents of Searcy Arkansas. He was born on November 19, 1896 in Alabama and died on May 20, 1956. His family was in Searcy, White County by 1910. The military listing of burials in National Cemeteries list him a PFC U S Army serving in World War I. He is buried in the Chattanooga National Cemetery, Chattanooga, Tennessee.
