Arnold's Story: May 26, 1946

On May 26, 1946, Arnold writes to his parents with photos of Korea and Koreans. I included scans of the backs of the photos because they had Arnold's comments and descriptions. He is later sent home on terminal leave starting August 7, 1946, as he calculates, and officially demobilized in mid September.
