Dear Diary,I haven’t written for a year. Well now I have a job, I work in a factory, we are helping to make some military equitment, that is the way we help with the war.They call this homefront.
Lots of women are doing now men jobs because there is no one that can do it, only us.
Phillip and Clayton are working too; they work in a farm half time and the other half time they go to school. Most of the kids are working to help their family.
My husband wrote a letter two weeks ago, he told me that he is safe but our neighbour got killed two months ago by the Germans because they started using something called chlorine gas. They are trying to figure out how to protect them self’s but they are not sure how to do it.
My husband also told me that my friend’s husband got trench foot; my friend is really worried about that because a lot of soldiers have died because of trench foot. I hope nothing bad happens to her husband or to my husband.
Life in the trenches it’s also pretty bad because they is rats all over the place and they eat people or whatever they find. I hoop this finishes soon so my husband can be back!
I will keep in touch with you, and if I take too long to write again it’s because I have a lot of work and things to do.
Good entry- great pictures!
