Post VE Day letter from MP buddy in Austria

[Sgtleo]

Joe I had 91 points in Sept. '45. and the Divn. came home in Nov. If I had known I

would have stayed and came with them. Saw your picture, NICE. Roque

 

Roque:-

 

Always one up on me you,you-------------I had 90 in Sept but didn't get home until '46!!

 

What might have happened to 206thMPCo's Dad was that he was put in what was

then called an MPEGCo.(Military Police Escort Guard Co.). The Army was still sending

POWs Stateside and this allowed them to get some men home earlier but also these

men were better trained than some of the MPs that were then coming over -dual purpose

result for the Army.

 

Joe - when I see your billet vs mine I get very jealous as we had the same type quarters

as the nearby POWs. Several times before he got real PO'd we asked the Bn Co. if we

were really on the winning side(LOL)!!!!
