Took 7 o'clock train for Liverpool arriving at 3 o'clock. Got a mailman to drive me out in big truck to APO 507 orderly room where I learned that Lenny was out on the inspection grounds. I hung around and waited until they were through then called Len. He cleaned up, I met all the guys in his room. Then he got a pass and we rode a train which resembled the Long Island RR. In fact one of the stations was called "Hillside," just like N.Y. We went to Southport, a resort town on the sea and hung around. We ate at the Red Cross club where I got a room for the night. We sat around and gabbed until about 11 PM when he had to take the last train back to his base. I walked him to the train station, where we said so long for then. He sure is one swell egg. Real nice boy. It seems after 2 years of working at the docks he is going to move closer to a combat area - but he said he was getting fed up anyhow. Will wait and see what develops. Took pictures in the A.R.C. yard.

Lenny (Leonard Morris) is Ted's brother-in-law.
