Individual Notes
• Miriam is at Omaha, Nebraska with her husband. He as you probably know is in the signal corps of the Aviation service. He has passed his final examination, and has been recommended for a commission, and has made the required number of flights at Fort Omaha, and the other day his name was posted for a transfer from his present location. Miriam thought it would probably be to Macon, Georgia, or to Columbus, Ohio, possibly to France. Of course when he goes overseas, Miriam will return home. [152, p 2]
