Tech. Sgt. Harry G. Schmidt, son of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Schmidt enlisted in the Army on January 14, 1942 and never came home on furlough but this week he is enjoying his first visit home and a permanent furlough, for he was the first Gillespie County serviceman to be released under the point system.
Sgt. Schmidt had points to spare, but his release came as a surprise, for he came to San Antonio's redistribution center intending to come home on a furlough when he was told he was eligible for honorable discharge. On Friday, June 1, he was given his discharge and arrived home the same day.
Sgt. Schmidt after entering the service in 1942, serviced at Ft. Sam Houston, Sheppard Field, and Ft. Dixon, N.J. before being sent overseas, where he covered a lot of territory before returning to the U. S.
Sent first to England, he went from there to North Africa; then to Sicily, over to India, back to Sicily and then to Italy; later he was shipped to France and returned to Italy before returning to the United States.

The following letter was written by Pfc. Jesse J. Schneider, 19, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jimmie Schneider, formerly of Fredericksburg, who have made their home in San Antonio since the outbreak of the war where Mr. Schneider is engaged in defense work at one of the army air fields. Pfc. Schneider is a member of the U.S. Marines and is in training at the Marine Corps Platoon Commanders School at Quantico, Virginia. He was one of the Marines selected to accompany the body of the late President Franklin Delano Roosevelt on its trip from Warm Springs, Ga. to Washingyon D C , and thence to the final burial place in the family’s Hyde Park estate in New York. The letter, which is quite interesting, follows:
April 16, 1946
Hello Folks:
I am back again after a very hectic week-end. We left for Washington at about 5:30 Saturday morning and arrived there at about 8:30. The President’s body arrived at Union Station at ten and then we marched from there past the Capitol to the White House, which is a little farther than from our home to the Post Office back home.
I never saw so many people in one crowd in all my live. They were filled in solid along the side walks, in parks, on top of every building, and looking out of windows. After the funeral procession to the White House we went out to the Navy Yards to eat. We went to a show and then ate supper and went to Union Station to take the train for Hyde Park.
We left Washington at about 8 o’clock in the evening and arrived at Hyde Park, New York the next morning a little before nine. From the station there we rode in army trucks to the Roosevelt Estate.
The President’s body did not arrive until a few minutes before ten but in the meantime we saw all the members of the White House. I saw President Truman, Byrnes, Wallace, Stettinius, Admiral King, Jim Farley, Lord Halifax, Mrs. Roosevelt, and even the dog "Falla". I was in a position where I could see everything, because I was close to where the newspaper people and photographers were.
The ceremony was simple but still it was beautiful and touching. Cadets from West Point followed their band in the procession and then came the body. You probably saw pictures in the papers of the horse-drawn caisson on which the body in the flag draped casket rested. A 21-gun salute was fired and after a brief sermon the President’s son removed the flag and the casket was lowered. After the funeral we went straight back to the station, got aboard our special train and headed for home.
The trip back was very interesting. We followed the banks of the Hudson River for about three hours. The country is very hilly and rocky in upper New York, and very much like the Medina Lake country. The altitude must be very high because it was chilly.
Hyde Park is about 80 miles from New York and it took us 5 hours to travel that far. Our train was right behind the President’s private train and was supposed to go all the way through without any trouble, but both trains were held up practically at every station.
The train ride through New York City was very interesting. A Sergeant sitting next to me showed me all the places of importance as we passed by. I saw Sing Sing Prison, Columbia University, the Empire State Building, the George Washington Bridge, Grand Central Station, rode through the Bronx, went underneath the river through a tunnel into New Jersey. My only regret was that I didn’t get to see the Statue of Liberty.
We also went through Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, and Baltimore. Around Philadelphia we really passed some factories. Those cities must really be crowded because factories of that size must employ millions of people.
We finally got back to Quantico at 3 o’clock this morning. They had bacon and eggs and hot coffee waiting for us when we came in. We slept until 8:30 this morning but I am still half asleep. I didn’t sleep more than three hours Friday night, and it was impossible to sleep on the train because the seats were straight. I don’t know if we have to go out into the field this afternoon.
I still can’t realize how important the job was. They told us it would even go down on our service record book. It was a great honor for all of us and really something to write home about. Now I have at least one thing important that I did while I was in the Marine Corps. My only regret was that I didn’t have a camera. Incidentally the flowers were expensive and beautiful. They were brought them in by the truck loads.
Well I am about to fall asleep sitting here writing so I had better quit and get some more sleep.
Your loving son.
Jessie
