Back: Handwritten: Nov 17, 1942 Cpl. K.E. Sacks, Hq. Det. VIII Corps, F. A. Sect., Brownwood, Tex. Hello Mother dear, sis, kids + Marj. We arrived yesterday 4:00 P.M. Very tired and the minute we got in people started coming in to see Kenney & the bride. Every minute has been just wonderful! I'm just crazy about all Kenney's folks and friends! will write all about it when I have more time. We have a dinner date for every night as long as we are here! Everyone is just real folks! Kenney's dad is a scream and his mom is sweet as can be! This little rock garden is across the back lot of the Sacks property. Every bit is hand made. The church is on the water front & are 2 light houses and there is gold fish in the pond. The pic. Really doesn't do this miniature site justice. Will tell more about it in a letter. Love, Becky & Cpl. | Mrs Sadie Ebert & All, 917 Dallas St., San Antonio, Texas
