Wayne Daniel letters, 1952-1954.

The collection consists of letters from Daniel written while he was stationed at the Fort Jackson, S.C., army base between 1952 and 1954 to his family in Tallapoosa, Ga. In his letters, Daniel talks about his experiences in the army from Private ranking to the status of Sergeant near the end of his career. His letters indicate that he never left Ft. Jackson during his army years, nor do they contain any mention of the Korean War conflict. It may be that mail censorship during war time prevented Daniel from sharing any such information with his family. He writes at length about the daily life of an enlisted man.
