Correspondence: Robert West, 1944-1947

Correspondence from Robert West, a soldier and friend of Iva's. His correspondence describes the living conditions and military experiences that he deals with during the second World War. Robert begins writing to Iva on a reccomendation from Iva's brother-in-law, Carl. Some of the letters ask about Carl, who is also in the military. Robert writes frequently about the types of shows that he sees at the theater, as well as his travel and day-to-day. Finally, as the correspondence progresses, Robert eventually writes from home. From home, Robert describes his struggles with returning to work post-war and the local concern surrounding miner strikes. He writes about his studies and classes, and notes trips that he would like to take with Iva and the others. In this folder, there are also two German coins from 1940 and 1941.
