Opis

This is a diary that my Granddad Ora Bowen wrote to his wife and my mother (the oldest of 5 children) during his tour of duty in World War I. He started writing in his diary April 4, 1918 and continued until May 16, 1919, just prior to his homecomiing. It accounts his preparation in Hoboken, New Jersey and passage over the Atlantic Ocean to Brest, Franch. From there he was put into Box Cars and shipped to the front line.
