Description
Allan writes to Gordon from Charleston, SC ("not AWOL"). In this letter Allan refers to a prior decision to "get out of the Navy" - "to get out on you know what," but says that he has now changed his mind: "I figured it wasn't worth it... So I told my executive officer I was lying. So he tore up all the papers on me. So I guess I'll be in for 2 1/2 more years (egad! that sounds long)." Dated November 1, 1973.
