http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/173862888

The collection consists of letters written by Milton S. Glatterer and his girlfriend/wife Louise Livingston Glatterer, ranging in date from 1936-1953, with the bulk of them written during the years of 1937-1946. The letters are handscribed on various forms of paper and also include some v-mail. Glatterer's World War II letters describe his daily life, weather conditions, and other information regarding a soldier's life while stationed in Germany. The letters from Louise to Milton contain information regarding daily life in Columbus and Forsyth, Georgia. The main gap in the collection is between 1947-1951. As most of the letters between Milton and Louise are numbered, the other gaps in the collection consist of missing numbered letters.
