Dearest Girl of Mine

By Toniann Scime

Kenneth Boulton Thurstone served with the 315th Ammunition Train of the 90th Division of the U.S. Army in World War I. A native of Buffalo who later resided in Amherst, NY, Ken wrote wonderfully detailed letters home from overseas. His descriptions of the life of a young soldier, of a young man in the early part of the twentieth century, are an invaluable resource for historians and researchers. Within these pages, however, there is also a love story, as most of Ken's missives are written to his fianc e Harriet Jackson. His lovely words of devotion, his charming turns of phrase, and the longing to be reunited with his "dearest girl" gives every line a special and romantic poetry.
