"My organization has good living quarters in which we are very grateful. It has been snowing for the last three days and our fighting men have to sleep in fox holes with no way of keeping warm other than a sleeping bag. this is why I ask you the members of the Cherry Grove Baptist church to please remember our fighting men in your prayers."
