English: "February 23, 1941
Dear Dad: I don’t know what you think had happened to me, but the chaos and confusion of the past month and a half have made it impossible for me to even think of writing a letter let alone start one. We are now on the sunny isle of Cuba, that “Pearl of the Caribbean”, and what a God-forsaken hole it is. It is so bad that I have coined a phrase, that to my mind, fits it very aptly-“Cuba is the place, created by the Devil, to take care of the over-flow from Hell”." From the Edward L. Parke Collection (COLL/5627) at the Archives Branch, Marine Corps History Division OFFICIAL USMC PHOTOGRAPH |
