During World War I Stout was a pilot, eventually serving as a lieutenant in the 27th Aero Squadron, First Pursuit Group. In this letter Stout discusses President Wilson's "masterful" rejection of a German armistice proposal: "Now I think the fewer notes passed the better - we have nothing to say to Germany until we are over the Rhine." In another notable passage, Stout asks his cousin to "use your influence to direct Kate's ambitions to anything by this nursing business," and writes that he believed his cousin Kate should pursue work "for which she is better suited temperamentally and physically." |
