Letter from Robert G. Kelly, 1945

 

05/28/1945

Kelly, Robert G.

 

"Now I've come to London with a tiredness increased by the unsteady journey, and a fear equally increased by it," Kelly writes of his fears about sinking into his idea of a soldier mentality. He also writes about a Canadian, just released from a prisoner of war camp in Germany, who recounted some of his "horrible" experiences to Kelly. For the moment, Kelly enjoys his freedom in England.
