The Evening Record

 

BERGEN BOYS ARE
MADE SERGEANTS

Philip Seilheimer, of Hudson Street , who was recently transferred from Camp Dix to Camp Gordon , Atlanta , Ga. , writes that he and his mates had a fine trip and certainly enjoy their new quarters. "The weather here is grand," he says. "The nights are cool and the days are warm. We drill in our olive drab shirts and do not wear any coats." In the same company with "Phillie" are Walter H. Wernsing, of Hackensack , and Robert W. Tate and Maurico Herman, of Englewood . Wernsing has been advanced to Mess Sergeant and Tate to Supply Sergeant.
