Attached herein is a chatty Eisenhower article that primarily concerns the plans for the Allied occupation of Germany, coupled with every American soldier’s wish to simply get in boats and go home:
“I’m just as bad off as any GI today,” General Eisenhower said quietly. “I don’t want to be here. I’m 54 years old and I lead a kind of lonely life.”
The third paragraph makes reference to a “pretty British secretary named Lt. Kay Summersby”.
