I am still in Camp waiting on Arwine and the Boys that is wounded. There
is any amount of legs, arms, hands lying around in Damp that had to be cut off
on account of thair bones being broken. the Doctors are taking off arms, and
legs and hands evry day. it is nothing to see them cut a mans arm off or a leg.
I hope to God that I wont have to witness the same again. it is horable to
think of.
