This episode revolves around World War 2 correspondence from a U.S. Army Captain in Germany to his wife in Michigan. 

Lt. Col Milner went over the subject of non-fraternization, and looting, and explained the Div Commanders policy in this matter.  

You remember me telling you I found a hotel basement with all kinds of liquor in it.  Well Milner gave me the okay to get some for the men.  I got one bottle per man and gave it out yesterday.  Well last night all hell broke loose.

I’m still in my old spot.  The house with hot & cold running water and my very soft bed.  If I stay here very much longer I’m going to become a civilian.
