Had the most wonderful breakfast today. 2 fresh fried eggs, big thick slice of ham, fried potatoes, ice water, fruit juice, coffee, marmalade, plum jam, 4 slices of bread. Oh, this food is going to ruin me. We are still sitting in Naples harbor at 12 o'clock noon. It's plenty cool in our room now with both of our port holes wide open. I wish we'd gget started. About 3:00 PM we finally took off. A nice calm ride, i hope. Another boy in my room is from home - Drake from Lyell Ave. Found out that my pal Siegal is from Rochester. In all the time we knew him I never knew where he came from. Queer. Met a guy named "Lou" West who just came from Decimo in Sardina. He knows Jerome and says he is doing O.K. Tonite for supper we had another super meal. We were picked for guards today. 4 men to each hold, to work on 8-hour shifts. I go to work at 7:00 AM. I was surprised today to find out that Joe B. Stuart, our engineer, is on this boat. He's going to Louisiana. Flash - for the first time in my young sweet life I shaved myself without the loss of any blood whatsoever!! Took a picture of the harbor and the Isle of Capri.
