Every officer that I have met and all the enlisted men are opposed to war. There are fewer jingoes In the Army and Navy than any place I know of. Now. this does not mean a lack of patriotism and a desire that respect be shown the flag. but it does mean an appreciation of what war means. It would he cheaper to take every refugee out of here. pay him every dollar due him. pension him for life. and let his blatant mouth be heard at home. as insufferable as that would be. rather than engage In war. The remainder of the letter is personal.
